Norm Clarke reports that Harrah’s is on the verge of a corporate name change, Bally’s is set to become the Horseshoe and Prince will be headlining in Las Vegas soon. Norm has a great track record with this kind of stuff (although I’m still waiting for Aladdin/Planet Hollywood to follow through on his report more than a year ago that Motley Crue would be the hotel’s regular headliner).

The Bally’s Project?
Interesting info from the Las Vegas Business Press about a vague reference to something happening with Bally’s, but no real detail. One thing is becoming evident about Harrah’s Las Vegas Strip plans—Flamingo isn’t going anywhere.
