The Sports Illustrated swimsuit models were on a whirlwind promotion in Las Vegas Feb. 13-15 for this year’s swimsuit issue, a night-and-day celebratory schedule that sent most of them home with blood-shot eyes and in need of a good night's sleep.
Repeat cover-model Kate Upton, the most popular girl at the dance, and her 16 fellow SI models, played basketball and showed their support for the NCAA Basketball Conference Championship at the iconic Las Vegas sign, ziplined down Fremont Street, happily paid a visit to the Forever Diamond Suite, and partied at Marquee Nightclub at The Cosmopolitan, 1OAK at the Mirage, The Bank at the Bellagio and poolside at Caesars Palace.
“I think you can go anywhere with this group of girls and have a good time in Vegas," Alyssa Miller told examiner.com. "Tomorrow we get to see Pit Bull perform so that’s gonna be fun. Last year was Bruno Mars and I loved him. I’m just happy wherever I can go with these girls and get our party on. It’s always a good time."
