Last week, Las Vegas joined the rest of modern metropolitan America when McCarran International Airport opened a cell-phone lot where drivers can wait—for free!—before getting the tip-off that loved ones are at passenger pickup. Now that we won’t be lapping the garages or accruing charges in short-term parking, however will we amuse ourselves as our old college roommate waits for his Karabar to roll down the carousel?

• Check Instagram, per usual. Then Instagram a pic of the guy next to us checking Instagram.

• Watch the lot surpass the airport runway viewing area on Sunset Road as Vegas’ secret-hookup destination.

• Dream up taunts for the surly traffic officers who will now have almost nothing to do at passenger pick-up.

• Marvel at the sophistication of our airport’s cutting-edge feature while teasing our bangs and singing along to Whitesnake’s “Child of Babylon.”

• Count all the money we’re saving in short-term parking fees and put it toward future MGM property parking fees.

• Nap.
