Its always a great time when your at Mohegan, the casino complex is bigger than most small towns, plenty of gambling to be done and a few very good restaurants, (get the duck sampler at bamboo forest) and a few nice bars. my favorite is leffingwells.

The rooms are expensive, 499/night for a weekend, but usually if you call them and charm them a little, they will offer you a better rate. If not go on a weekday and youll have a blast while all you coworkers are drowning in paperwork
