For Fans That Have Attended 3121

Iam disabled and will be going to 3121 on Nov.24th,25th.Iam unable to stand all night. Someone reported that there are a second level of tables for the ones whoose feet get tired. Is this correct? Can you see Prince from this area? Did anyone notice a disabled section? I really want to attend but couldn't spend 700 dollars for a table. I would be willing to split the cost of a table with someone. Thankyou

I'm pretty sure I read in someone else's concert report that there is a disabled-friendly area in the club. Have you tried calling the Rio and seeing if they can help you? I don't know the number but I'm sure the Rio has an easily findable web site with their contact info. It's worth a shot!

Yeah, I'd definately check with the hotel first, rather than just going and finding out there's no where to rest. As far as I've heard, none of the tables and booths are free, 2nd tier included. There's info on the Rio here:

Also check out the Concert Forum, that is where fans with an extra ticket are tending to advertise...

Almost positive that there are places for wheelchairs. In fact, while waiting in line we saw Mike Phillips come out and he talked to a few fans. He reached over to hug someone in front of me and didn't see the woman in a wheelchair right between them. He stepped on the woman's foot. You could tell he was really embarassed.

But that woman was in the front of the line. Hmmmm...maybe I should just show up in a wheelchair next time.

Vegas has an ADA policy that's fairly comprehensive. I'm sure the hotel will accommodate U.

I specifically saw a couple ladies Saturday nite who were in wheelchairs at the show. If my memory serves me it was on the 2nd tier of tables

I don't know, but I don't think Lovebird is in a wheelchair, after all they mention their feet getting tired. Disabled doesn't always automatically mean wheelchairs.

exactly. it is the law under the ADA. Public locales are required to provide handicapped accomodations. only way to avoid it is if you are a "private" club and require membership for entry.
