I might want a cite for that. I’m checking the NRS, and I don’t see it. A search for “convention” certainly doesn’t come up with an appropriate response.

Further, convention rates are not necessarily cheaper than what you can get by booking normally. Oftentimes, resort fees are optional (generally about $30/day), but the per night fee is often higher as well. Given how big conventions can be in Vegas, (50-100,000 people), hotels will run convention rates for the big ones and not even check if you are actually a part of the convention.
