Episode Description

This week we got a first look at the possible new home of the Neon Museum in the Las Vegas Arts District. While the concept art was accidentally leaked, it appears to show the museum taking home on the roof of a Downtown parking garage. How will this look and what does it mean for the museum?

In other #news someone is reporting MGM is beginning to charge a phone booking fee. Is this fair and is this even a new practice? We also discuss Oyo's interesting implosion promo, Luxor's new carpet from above, how Vegas loop is going autonomous, an exciting pop-up restaurant, surviving in Vegas with no hotel and $20 plus how beginner's luck helped one man win $407K.
