Sep 2000:14:07Tap to summarizeIt was said that people would rebuild their buildings to accommodate the biggest sign they could afford. That’s how important signage was, or how important it is. Las Vegas was the only town in the world whose skyline was made up of signs. So big, they were the first thing you’d see from a mile away. YESCO, Heath, Federal, Ad Art and SSI are just some of the names responsible for bringing those iconic signs to life and by doing so caused one element to be more important in the hearts of so many…NEON.

Jul 27, 202500:52:49Tap to summarizeRandom Vegas 1992 is when Circus Circus opened their bungee jump experience with a 201 foot tower. Jumpers paid $100 to drop 171 feet almost into a swimming pool. The attraction closed in 2005 TwitPic of the week I don’t know how they did it but I love it. This week’s winner by @SCVegas is a photo of the W tower at Mandalay Bay while it was still known as Delano, the Luxor Pyramid, Excalibur Castle and NYNY, all in one photo. It’s a stunner showcasing just how diverse the options are south strip. It’s interesting that the people who originally experienced these themed properties when they were embracing the theme concept are the same people wishing Vegas properties would reembrace theming. Unfortunately Murrenzation will all but guarantee this will never happen as it costs money to be unique. News Electric Mushroom Slotapalooza 2025

Jul 20, 202500:59:32Tap to summarizeRandom Vegas The Circus Circus sky shuttle was the first automated transit system in Las Vegas built 23 years before the monorail. It was decommissioned mainly due to high maintenance costs and because it did not go to the airport (LasVegasLocally) TwitPic of the week She is known by some as the dirty bird but thanks to photoshop she looks like a gem in the desert, shared by @flamingovegas. The property, shot from what can only be a drone to get such an angle, glows pink and looks elegant. Again, what photoshop can do boggles the mind. Say what you will about the Flamingo, the oldest operating casino in Las Vegas deserves respect of outlasting all her peers. Stardust, Frontier, Desert Inn, Sands, Dunes, Tropicana and many, many more can’t say the same thing. News · 360 Vegas Live · Reward Points vs Tier Points

Jul 13, 202501:20:29Tap to summarizeRandom Vegas At one time, Golden Nugget made more money than all the casinos on Fremont St combined (Vital Vegas) TwitPic of the week It’s an elegant photo taken during 360 Vegas Vacation 15 shared by @360vegasjaydubs and answering the question, what’s in a pyramid. In this case, the artium level of the property is prominently featured showcasing Play Playground, Diablos and all the attractions on property. It’s one of the pictures that I knew was a winner the moment I saw it and yet I find myself struggling to find the words to explain how beautiful I think it is. Maybe that says more than words.

Jul 6, 202501:00:21Tap to summarizeRandom Vegas July 2nd is a popular date to open a casino, just before the 4th of July weekend crowd comes in. In Vegas history, 5 properties have opened on July 2nd. They are the Stardust which opened in 1958, International, best known as the Hilton but currently known as Westgate, opened in 1969, Plaza opened in 1971, Holiday Casino, known today as Harrah’s, opened in 1972 and Sundance, known today as the D, opened in 1980. (Vegas_Visual) TwitPic of the week She may have been a dud in reality but the Landmark was still a looker, shared by@las_when. Incorrectly said to be inspired by the Jetson’s cartoon home, the Landmark project was designed several years before the start of that show. Some say it was inspired by the space needle in Seattle but in truth, the two were designed around the same time so any similarities are most likely coincidental. The Landmark is another one of those properties that lives on idyllically in people’s minds, a Vegas legend. News Best Lobby Bars View and Drinks Bottled Blonde

Jun 29, 202502:15:05Tap to summarizeRandom Vegas The Sarno Block was actually a large brick formed of two half-ovals which could be stacked to make a modern latticework screen. It made the resort’s night façade glow evenly, smoothing over the chaos of dark and lit rooms behind it. (The strip) TwitPic of the week Sometimes the stars align, or in this case, the sun, the moon and the High Roller. A beautiful picture shared by @lasvegaslocally found a picture that summarizes what it’s like to go to a 360 Vegas Vacation. It really is like a family reunion with people you want to spend time with. As the sun rises, so do the good times only had at a 360 Vegas Vacation. When will you join us?
