I know what a lot of you are thinking, so I should clarify…they dont mix according to the Nevada Gaming Control Board.
Heres the story…the famed Girls of Glitter Gulch strip club in Downtown Vegas wanted to add slot machines. So th gaming regulators dropped by a couple times undercover to check things out. Once inside, they were propositioned by girls who were willing to do a lot more than dance and were also asked if they wanted to buy drugs. Read more

Casino carpets
Filed Under Crazy Stuff, Las Vegas, Las Vegas Casinos | Leave a Comment
I have to admit, I have a love hate relationship with casino carpets. 95% of the casino carpets I’ve seen in my years of travel resemble carpets Ive had during college that were stained with vomit, cigarette burns, and other things I wont mention. Yet, a casino wouldnt be a casino without these offensively interesting designs.
The Reno Gazette Journal has a very good article all about casino carpets, and I highly recommend anyone as fascinated by these repulsive rugs as me check it out.

Caesar’s Las Vegas shooting

If you have never seen this video of the shooting that took place at the Caesar’s hotel elevator lobby last year, check it out. Its nuts, or actually, the guy is nuts. I just stumbled across this news item that the shooter has been sentenced to three to sixteen years in jail. I wonder if they slapped some extra time on for stupidity? He must have been the only tourist to visit Vegas that didnt realize his every action was being recorded by about a dozen security cameras every second.

Steve Wynn attacked by hookers
Filed Under Crazy Stuff, Las Vegas | Leave a Comment
Picture this. Steve Wynn gets out of his limo. Starts walking to the entrance of his hotel and gets propositioned by a hooker asking, “do you want to get laid?” Wynn takes her by the arm (she probably was thinking she got lucky), walks her over to the doorman, a struggle ensues, a second hooker jumps in to the scrum, and Wynn ends up getting slapped. Wouldnt you have loved to have seen that play itself out.
You got to give Mr Wynn props. He has always tried to run a clean, first-class joint and never had tolerance for prostitutes in his resorts and did the right thing.
I cant help but wonder though, where the heck was security? I know things are tough in Vegas and all the casinos are cutting costs, but I never thought I’d see Steve Wynn doing security. Read more
