Bargain Show
Readers' Pick: Mac King
Harrah's Las Vegas
3475 Las Vegas Blvd. South

The comedy Magician who holds the line on his ticket prices plunks his plaid-suited bottom onto this category for the fifth year running. The full ticket price of $27.45 gets you VIP treatment, but bargain coupons pump up the capacity when needed, mostly on school days when the young'ns aren't in town.

Favorite Male Las Vegan
Our Pick: Mac King

If Mac King confined himself to the Strip where his "Mac King Comedy Magic Show" remains a matinee staple at Harrah's he'd be an all-time favorite, thanks to the delightfully childlike 'tude—and mood—that accompanies the goofy plaid suit and low-tech tricks. But King's magic isn't confined to the stage—he shares it with kids of all ages, through his "Magic in a Minute" comic strip and kits. Even better, he's devoted to the magic of books, sponsoring an annual book drive and serving as a children's literacy advocate at local schools and libraries. On the page or on the stage, King's talents—and generosity—are no illusion.
