U.S. Olympians are fans of Sin City.

Last month, Ryan Lochte hit up Las Vegas to celebrate his birthday, and just this past weekend, his fellow American swimmer Michael Phelps decided to party there for Labor Day Weekend.

So who gets the gold when it comes to Vegas antics? This might be a toss-up.

Get the deets on Lochte's birthday celebration in Vegas!

Let's compare their trips...

Unlike Lochte, Phelps did not have a swimming competition with Prince Harry. And neither medalist was involved in a nude photo scandal with a certain redheaded royal.

Instead, Phelps celebrated his retirement from competitive swimming with friends and Olympic gold medalist Allison Schmitt and poker star Phil Hellmuth on Saturday night at Surrender, raging alongside DJ Afrojack. Phelps took the mic and exclaimed, "This is my first night of retirement at Surrender!" He then threw back a shot of chilled Grey Goose vodka.

The next day, Phelps was spotted at Encore Beach Club, a spot Lochte made sure to stop at during his visit, too, partying in a luxury bungalow, enjoying the music by superstar DJ David Guetta.

One thing these two had in common during their Vegas stay: being surrounded by ladies in bikinis and cake. OK, so that's two things.

Lochte was surprised with a line of servers in gold two-pieces who brought him out a birthday treat. Meanwhile, Phelps (who didn't need a birthday to get some dessert) was presented with a cake paying tribute to the 22 Olympic medals he won during his swimming career, by a bunch of bikini-clad servers.

Imagine what these two could get into partying in Vegas together!
