Aside from checking out the fishtanks, I only shop for outdoor clothes and some light terminal tackle when I do stop by.
In Vegas, you could whittle away the time next door at Silvertons, which has a nice Mermaid fish tank for you and the kids.
So, no, you are perfectly sane like the rest of us; except for the shared addiction of paddling out into the Pacific Ocean on a moderately small piece of polyethylene roto-molded plastic  .
P.S. Never buy the Offshore Brand Basspro Sabikis. I loaded up on 2 dozen one year and each pack had hooks that snapped like dry twigs... |
I bought a dozen of those Sabikis myself, so far I'm still on the 1st one so I have 11 to use.
The Mermaid tank is a nice thing to check out.
The clothes can be pretty cool when they are closing out some styles.
