Due to low demand, we cranked out another episode of the Vital Vegas Podcast. We are just as shocked and disappointed as you.
There's so much to talk about, and we've got all the inside scoops you won't hear anywhere else.
Yes, we had dinner with Criss Angel, one of the signs of the apocalypse.
In addition to regaling you with the details of Criss Angel's “Summit”, we also delve into all the latest Las Vegas rumors that we started, one of which has already been confirmed (Tropicana will arrive in April 2024) (closes on the 2nd of the month).
We also share an interesting rumor that the Hard Rock (now the Mirage, owned by the Seminoles) is moving to acquire TI.
There's also new news from Fontainebleau that the newly opened resort has “quietly fired” its president and appointed former Wynn president Maurice Wooden to take his place. Wood's licensing process could be interesting because he was one of the people credited with helping to keep Steve Wynn's actions secret for years. It's a very juicy drama!
We will also thoroughly cover “Nacho Gate”. In case you missed it, I didn't miss it by much. Basically, someone complained about the nachos at Tavern Restaurant and it went viral and we were wise about it. We spoke with Fontainebleau Tavern's general manager Robert Parekh about the online fuss.
There are also thoughts about Virgin's Lady Like and Rio's Canteen food hall, parking fees at MGM Resorts hotels will increase, and Caesars Entertainment and ATM fees will increase to $11.99 (ouch). There is also the usual commotion. MGM resort casino.
The episode concludes with an interview with one of the best magicians in Las Vegas, Matt Franco. Franco recently celebrated his 8th year on The Strip with an impressive and well-deserved run. Matt Franco seems so nice and normal, which is weird. learn more.
All this and the usual incoherent ramblings are in store for this installment of this podcast, which ranks among the best gambling podcasts in the world, according to a site you've never heard of before. Maybe we should talk about gambling sometime.
Push Las Vegas into the noise-collecting opening, the new “ear hole.”
