Vegas
Nevada gambling mecca
Vegas is the common short form of Las Vegas, the Nevada city famous for casinos, entertainment, and a reputation for excess and indulgence.
The phrase What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas suggests that behavior there—gambling, drinking, impulsive decisions—won't follow you home.
