  1. Little known fact. The best new Las Vegas shows debut at hotels right before they’re torn down. The Prince guy at Boardwalk, anyone who played at the Ho, and I recently heard a rumor that Celine was moving to Tropicana.

    I’m somewhat disappointed, I thought this one was going to be on ice.

  2. Yeah… Buck Wild looks pretty bad, but it’s already survived for several months much to my surprise. I really didn’t think there was a market for Hee Haw humor anymore, but what do I know? When we were in Las Vegas in October, we met a really nice couple from Iowa at the bar at Imperial Palace. They had seen Buck Wild the previous night and had actually paid full price, not realizing two-for-one coupons were readily available in all the freebie magazines in their hotel room. D’oh!

  3. I’m going to be in town in late April, and if it’s still playing three weeks after it opens, I’m going. I’ll give you all a full report.

  4. Sports books are what its all about. I have walked the entire length of the strip over two days and drank my way from Caesars to MGM. I have tried to go into every sportsbook on the strip and downtown over the last 5 years. Mandalay is one of the better books. Bellagio is great too. The Venetian was not that great. Caesar’s was not that great either. The seats were uncomfortable but then again that was 2001 or 2002 so I have not gone back to that book.

    I go for the horses so I always try to find someplace to camp out near the locals when off of the strip. Back on the Strip, New York New York was ridiculous. I have actually placed a bet there and we had to dodge people headed to and from the ESPN Zone.

    There was one that I cannot recall though which was downtown or was it the Imperial. It had the burger joint to the lefy of tv screens. I was a bit buzzed but it was an interesting spot. Lots of Boston Bruins fans were there which was weird to go across country and everyone was from Beantown.
