EDC Vegas ProTip #37 Buy a Smoothie

There’s only one thing that you have to buy once you’re inside of the Las Vegas Motor Speedway and that is a fruit smoothie. That’s it. Water is free and you’ll already have a camelbak or Insomniac Bottle. It’s easy to survive the night without buying any food or alcohol. You may want to buy a t-shirt but that isn’t as much of a requirement as a smoothie.

I don’t recall the exact price but they are under $10 and anyone who has ever had one has spoken highly of them. Chances are while you’re in Las Vegas you aren’t exactly eating healthy balanced meals. You’ll be loading up on buffet’s, fast food, Fat Tuesday’s drinks and God knows what else.

The solution to combat all of that is a nice healthy dose of fruit blended up into an amazing ice cold smoothie. To add extra flavor walk to the mix drink stand and ask to buy a shot of vodka. It’s Vegas, why not! The smoothie will hit the spot and give you a boost of energy that you desperately needed.
