Walking the Las Vegas Strip Super Bowl Weekend

February 9, 2021 by Mark Anthony

https://youtu.be/BJ_7W6oDPsk On any other Super Bowl weekend, the Las Vegas Strip would be packed with tourists and rabid sports fans. Normally we would have upwards of 300,000 tourists in town. But as we all know, this was not your normal Super Bowl weekend in Las Vegas. Most businesses are capped at 25% occupancy. Even with the capacity cap, the Las Vegas Strip was a lot … [Read more...] about Walking the Las Vegas Strip Super Bowl Weekend

Checking out the New FSE Light Show

November 22, 2019 by Mark Anthony

New Lights for The Fremont Street Experience

Last night I went down to what I like to call "the freak zone", other people call it by its actual title: The Fremont Street Experience. The reason I went there was to see the new, improved and ultra amazing light show. In the last couple of months, they have been hard at work trying to get the new lighting system up and running before New Year's Eve.  And they are pretty much … [Read more...] about Checking out the New FSE Light Show

How Far To to the Strip?

June 26, 2019 by Mark Anthony

How far to walk to the Las Vegas Strip?

Recently, on one of the Las Vegas online discussion groups, the question came up about staying at the Trump Hotel. Some of the commenters were stating that it was a nice place to stay but was too far off the Strip.  That staying there, you would need to take a taxicab or Uber to get to the Strip!  Oh Really? So I started to think about that.  A long walk to the Strip?  Has … [Read more...] about How Far To to the Strip?

CES 2019 Day One

January 9, 2019 by Mark Anthony

The Perfect Keyboard for me

It's the first week in January and that can only mean one thing.  The annual geekfest known as CES has rolled into town and Las Vegas is filled with people and technology!  I mean a lot of people.  Like 160,000  people from all around the world.  They pretty much fill up all the hotel rooms in town.

Review: Matt Goss at 1 Oak Nightclub

February 14, 2018 by Mark Anthony

Matt Goss the New Sinatra at the Mirage!

You haven't seen Matt Goss Yet? Really? Why Not?  Good question. Except I'm not asking.  The question came from my darling wife Debbie; "Why haven't we seen him before tonight?"  was her actual question and to be honest, after the first song,  I didn't have a really good answer for her. I think it goes back to why I founded this website all those years ago. For almost a … [Read more...] about Review: Matt Goss at 1 Oak Nightclub

The Gazillionaire is Holding Open Casting Call for Absinthe, Feb 6

January 22, 2018 by Mark Anthony

Absinthe Las Vegas is hiring

One of the truisms of Las Vegas is that we know how to separate you from your money better than any other city in the world.  We've been doing it for over 100 years.  Also, if you ever want to learn the art of marketing, Mad Men style, come to Las Vegas.  Nothing is done here without first thinking about the marketing.  From the placements of the slot machines to the cut of the … [Read more...] about The Gazillionaire is Holding Open Casting Call for Absinthe, Feb 6
