There's no such thing as a bad place to watch a Vegas Golden Knights game. Well, except for these three places.

Las Vegas is a great city to watch a sports game. You have a wide variety of options to choose from, whether you want to go to the Strip or Fremont Street. There are numerous sports books and bars that offer an authentic gameday experience, with countless big screens and culinary options. If you're a Las Vegas citizen, you have it better than most people.

Last time, I highlighted the best places to check out a Vegas Golden Knights game. Places such as New York New York Casino and Circa stood out, providing an authentic experience for hockey fans everywhere. It doesn't matter if it's the convenience or if there's a watch party happening. These places make life fun for NHL enthusiasts everywhere, giving them everything they wanted.

But what about the three places where you shouldn't watch a game? What makes these casinos repulsive and unbearable to be around? There are numerous reasons why fans shouldn't watch the Golden Knights play at these casinos. That includes being run down and, well, being haunted. That's right. Paranormal activity is involved in this post, so don't get spirited away.

Still, let's examine the three casinos that Golden Knights fans shouldn't watch a game at. These places don't exactly have the best reputations in town or are too spooky to consider. Unless you don't mind meeting a ghost or dealing with crazy people in these casinos, these aren't the places for you. Here are the three spots to avoid at all costs.

Circus Circus

One complaint about Circus Circus is that it's incredibly dirty. Guests have complained about the carpets being nasty and how they're unable to walk barefoot in their hotel rooms. Imagine all the gross body fluids and smells eminating from these rooms. It's a ticking timebomb for any Vegas Golden Knights fan that wants to stay there.

There's also the basic functionalities of the hotel that make it undesirable. That includes malfunctioning elevators, which was a common complaint in Google Reviews. Check out this video where people were waiting in a line extending miles long.

Getting to your hotel or navigating the hotel can be a matter of time for many Golden Knights fans. What if you're coming in from Pahrump and need to get to T-Mobile Arena in a couple of hours? That could be a frustrating ordeal for Vegas hockey fans, especially if they're coming from an hour away. Therefore, it's not worth it for fans to make it to this casino if they're the impatient type.

Westgate Resort

On the surface, Westgate looks nice, offering great dining options and breathtaking shows (Barry Manilow, anyone?). It might be worth taking a gamble on this resort and checking out the various parts involved. However, there are some issues with coming here for a Vegas Golden Knights game, starting with the conditions.

There have been numerous complaints about the resort's conditions like Circus Circus, ranging from broken AC units to malfunctioning showers. There are also dirty rooms and blood stains on the sheet. I guess someone was ended in one of these rooms? Many negative reviews talk about various aspects breaking down, making for a terrible customer experience. Add in the fact it's a timeshare resort and it's even more of a joke.

Speaking of blood stains and scary stuff, it's been rumored that Elvis Presley's spirit roams a villa, which was felt by numerous guests. Now that might be worth staying for many Golden Knights fans that want to don their "blue suede shoes." But if you're afraid of ghosts and don't like paranormal experiences, this might not be for you.

Hotel Apache at Binion's

Now, there are some problems associated with Hotel Apache that fall in line with the previously mentioned candidates. Bed bugs, lots of noise, and smelly neighbors are some of the complaints that come with this resort. Granted, it's a 2-star resort, which comes with the territory. It's also an older casino and hotel, meaning it's not as glitzy and glorious as New York New York Casino.

However, this isn't the most ideal place if you're not a fan of paranormal activity (along with Westgate Resorts). There have been instances of lights randomly turning on and off throughout the night, waking up guests at 3:30 AM. There have also been stories of a man and children playing the drums, both instances happening in room 400.

Again, this might be a fun time for people who are interested in paranormal activity. The thought of capturing ghosts and falling objects in real time is a compelling pastime for some. However, if you're afraid of spiritual beings, this might not be the right experience for you. That's especially true when a ghost is telling the security officer to go away.
