Tonight, repeat of a 2017 episode of “Pawn Stars” with magician Dirk Arthur looking to get $18,000 for his helicopter prop aired. At least that’s not creepy. — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 30, 2023
@itsnotreallyben @Make_It_Cool @strai65008 Todd-Avery Lenahan did a lot of what Thomas got credit for, all due respect. — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 30, 2023
Especially good episode of the @360Vegas podcast this week (episode 464) about F1 (with suggestions for improvements), as well as social influencers and transparency. We know everyone (it’s one of the reasons we’re the best at what we do), but have never taken a dollar for a blog… https://t.co/Vfhk5GjBZR https://t.co/wYTLtKCoBj — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 30, 2023
@360vegasKeren @360vegas Thanks, just seeing this but loved episode 464! You guys did a great job of breaking this down and 100% agree I have zero fear of the FTC or anyone else as I have zero financial relationships with any Vegas entity, and thank you all for suggesting trolls bring any shred of… https://t.co/kE0gw3k8kp — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 30, 2023
Time to say goodbye to the Trop whether they A’s move there or not. Seems unlikely Bally’s Corp. will be the owner if a new hotel is built, as it doesn’t have the financial resources. (h/t @JamesInLasVegas) https://t.co/id9Dt854wX — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 27, 2023
If casinos ever have weed dispensaries, the product names and marketing are going to be so easy. https://t.co/9MvgDDdmWr — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 27, 2023
@JasGordon I’m not familiar with the situation. I consider her media and media comps are common. When was the last time Johnny Kleptometes said he got a free show ticket? Disclosure is an important issue, but the personal attacks are relentless. These “champions of integrity” are envious… https://t.co/EIFvGDXdjw — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 26, 2023
When this common sense smoking ban works in Atlantic City, Las Vegas casinos will be out of excuses. Casinos are no different than other businesses where people gather—employees aren’t disposable, where’s the union on this issue? https://t.co/rmzPnUs7qo https://t.co/E2tvDvTRp3 — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 26, 2023
William B’s steakhouse sits where Salvatore's was, and replaces SC Prime. The prices seem aspirational for Suncoast, but should give the meh T-Bones at Red Rock a run for its money. https://t.co/mwbj8CrvHG — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 24, 2023
Reminder: These metrics are complete falsehoods, no matter how many times they’re reported as facts. “The weeklong event drew 315,000 spectators over four nights and brought in an estimated $1.2 billion in economic impact.” https://t.co/Lek1MaiU3Y — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 24, 2023
One of the most Las Vegas things we’ve ever heard, said at a dice craps tonight: “When you gamble, you can win 2,000 percent of your money, or more, but the most you can lose is 100 percent.” — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 23, 2023
@John_Mehaffey Ha, they do that at Santa Fe, too. I heard non-poker pages, too. I thought that was a thing of the past! — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 22, 2023
Vegas Loop update! It’s like the baby raptor emerging from the egg in “Jurassic Park,” but without all the running and screaming. @BoringCompany @ElonMusk https://t.co/1TynW1SQ9U — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 21, 2023
@bernitravel @360vegas That’s what happens when a big event for a few people drives out regular people. The town empties (other than a handful of venues that do well), prices crash and traffic clears right up. — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 21, 2023
Some have suggested our recent F1 posts have been “negative.” Here’s an upbeat one: Yafuckinghoo! (h/t @JamesInLasVegas) https://t.co/bGCZX1Bt8r — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 20, 2023
F1: “We’ve lost public support for this event. We need to do something.” Also F1: “Let’s get assholes to yell at people on the bridges.” F1: “Nailed it.” https://t.co/bYt1tZDOSz — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 18, 2023
ICYMI: Encore occupancy receipts. (Note: Not an actual “receipt,” but the way the kids use the term—proof or evidence.) https://t.co/hCV1NeIgsg — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 17, 2023
Oyo is the dirtiest hotel-casino in Las Vegas, according to Trip Advisor. Fun fact: Oyo stands for “on your own.” #2, Excalibur. #3, Luxor. https://t.co/qbpdnBdf9K https://t.co/EuTyxgtPDf — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 16, 2023
Emmitt Smith restaurant legal kerfuffle heats up as former celebrity chef Todd English is served papers, denies he’s Todd English. Honestly, we would, too, if we were Todd English. https://t.co/QlNbi0hXhe — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 16, 2023
Cue the ACLU. If this sticks, say goodbye to costumed characters on Fremont Street, often registered sex offenders. https://t.co/4CfQuvaAni — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 15, 2023

Confirmed: One of the few pieces of good public art in Las Vegas has been painted over. “Horned Toad” by ROA—a street artist from Ghent, Belgium—was originally designed for the Life is Beautiful festival. https://t.co/FohQgtFyWH — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 14, 2023
@JonFarrar @NigirianPrince @gratiotface @zestyne3 @SkylarJameson1 Exactly. They’d have lasted 3-4 days, and a large number of members would have refused to strike, rendering the union obsolete—they would never have risked it. The deal was done before all the drama. People outside Vegas don’t get the tipped worker aspect, they voted for a… https://t.co/sfRAadoNUs — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 13, 2023
If casinos could stop playing this song, that’d be great. Very distracting when we’re trying to gamble! https://t.co/wB4WRSJhdb — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 12, 2023

Confirmed. Clique’s new lounge will be Caspian's. “An intimate cocktail and caviar bar on the outside with a dramatic secret music lounge inside, Caspian’s is set to open this spring.” https://t.co/zvQSIPuVbw — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 10, 2023
100%. Wynn tomorrow. The union makes these final sessions run late for effect. (Caesars went to 6:00 a.m.) Fun fact: Culinary schedules Big Table sessions in the afternoon specifically so they’ll go late into the night, giving members the impression they did something, despite… https://t.co/EsOVKmb7J3 https://t.co/sJHplTVi2M — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 9, 2023
@jumbeaux55 The Sphere is owned by MSG. That's not a huge leap. Also, what gives you the impression I'm soliciting feedback? — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 8, 2023

@Radnez Cigar lounges are stupid and disgusting, and anything bad that happens should be blamed on them. Napoleon’s recently opened as a cigar lounge. — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 6, 2023
@shepherd7117 @ObserverVegas @RaiderPosts @LVbeautifulTS This troll is still obsessing over Tweets from 2019. Imagine being that mad about jokes, and having that small a life and such terrible reading comprehension. Also, fuck rude cigar smokers. — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 6, 2023

@gotmilkhs @tmsaran Agree. We’ll never hear the actual financial results, but there’s really zero accountability after the fact. — Vital Vegas (@VitalVegas) Nov 5, 2023

Enjoying episode 461 of the @360Vegas podcast, and the question arose about the cost of rebranding Quad (formerly the Imperial Palace) to Linq. The cost was $2.3 million, the Quad swirl can still be found inside Linq.
