MGM Mirage Sells Treasure Island

It seems like just yesterday when we were talking about how nothing major was going on in Las Vegas. How quickly things change. MGM Mirage announced this morning it is selling Treasure Island to former New Frontier owner Phil Ruffin. What does this mean for TI? Will Sirens’ Cove be filled with mud for the return of Cold Beer, Dirty Girls? Will Christian Audigier: The Nightclub be replaced by Gilley’s? Will Sigma Derby return to the north end of The Strip? Will Ruffin resurrect his plans for either City by the Bay or Montreux? We’ll ponder these and other questions about Treasure Island on the next show.
