Trip within a trip?

I know Tribe will chime in with a strong reco. I am heading to Vegas again. This time in November. With Veteran's Day on a Wednesday, I can take 2 days off and get a 5 day trip. Buddy just booked the flights, and I have had the hotel reservation for a couple of weeks.

Its been awhile since I have been during FB season so I looked at the college and pro schedules to see what looks like it would be fun to gamble on and watch at a sports book. I happen to see that both the Chargers and the 49ers are playing at home that weekend. So I looked up flights and found that I can get to either place for less than $100 r/t. Not too shabby.

So here is the reco part for you guys:

A) Do I make a trip within a trip? Seeing a west coast team play at their place isn't something I am going to get a chance to do all that often.
B) Chargers vs Bears on MNF (requires overnight) or 49ers vs Falcons at 4pm (can do sameday flights)?
C) MGM property's All Tall/All Small or CET's Fire Bet in Craps?
 
I'd choose A for a couple reasons

1. It's monday night so you won't miss any of the other action in the sportsbook. If you go to san fran you will miss all of the games on Sunday. Personally I would rather be in the sportsbook watching and betting all the games than at an NFL stadium.

2. Unless you can fly into San Jose the 49ers stadium is nowhere near the San Fran airport so it may not be as easy to do same-day travel. Charger's stadium is a quick Uber from airport.
