On your next trip to empty your pockets and soul in Las Vegas, why not set aside $400 for Dig This, a playground for adults to spend two hours operating excavators and bulldozers. Session's free if you find a body. They pay you if you find Jimmy Hoffa.

The toys available include two Caterpillar D5 track-type bulldozers and three Caterpillar 315CL hydraulic excavators. Guests can dig a 10-foot trench, try to move basketballs off safety cones or pick up one-ton tires. The 30-minute safety training does not include instructions on how to slide down the bucket arm while yelling "yabba dabba doo."
