Dig this: Latest Vegas entertainment not for penny players

Monday, 27 Oct, 2011 0

There’s no shortage of entertainment in Las Vegas but the latest shows some ingenuity: driving heavy machinery such as a bulldozer.

A company called DigThis is offering the new activity. Be warned, however, it is not cheap: the activity starts at $210 for an hour and half. The bulldozer itself has a $750-an-hour price tag.

You might assume this was a very male-oriented activity but that’s not the case.

"Fifty percent of our clients are women," Dig This owner Ed Mumm told USA Today. "They're very good because they listen and they don't put as much pressure" on the machinery.

One of the more unusual offerings is a "Dig and Destroy" package ($525), where after working the heavy machinery, participants can go a nearby shooting range to fire off rounds of a KRISS Super V, which is a fully automatic Sub-Machine gun.
