BizarroAzrael posted:I would have thought it would be done to endure at least the three F1's Vegas has contacted. From what I understand, they planned the F1 stuff in Vegas so the first setup would make teardown and setup for the future ones faster, easier, mostly reusable, and cheaper. I'm assuming they figure the cost of redoing it is less than the money they will pull in with the extra accessibility and curb appeal while it's gone or whatever.

It was over a decade ago, but count me as another that enjoyed the Penn and Teller show. So did my folks, who I went with. It's a pretty good mix of magic, jokes, and storytelling, and they came off quite likeable. The only thing I can say (at least from my long ago experience) is that if you are looking for a fast-paced show, this isn't it. To me that's fine, I really liked it, but don't go in expecting non-stop action and constant flash. Myself, I got what I expected and then some, but just throwing that out there. +1 would go again.

Craptacular! posted:Tropicana... I expect it to just sit empty for a while. Midjack posted:Isn't the baseball field going there? Yeah that's where the A's are supposed to be moving to. Some of the ins and outs are still in the works (timeframe, interim plans) but that's the word.

Craptacular! posted:I went to the Stardust on it's very last day, and visiting Tropicana several weeks ago felt a lot like that: generally a vibe that the things that make money still work and there's no real need for a full demolition, but decades of sprawl has left it with no clear easy improvement. Imploding the Stardust was the wrong move for it's owner as they had to sell it to someone capable of finishing the rebuild after the housing crisis hit Vegas, and I feel Trop will likely meet a similar fate. Arguably half of Tropicana could have been saved while the other half is redeveloped, but presuming you have the money (and I'm not sure the Ballys corporation does, given what's happening in Chicago) why would you? Saving grace is, the land is owned by a different company who could try to break the lease if Ballys is unable to construct a replacement. Same response as last time: The Tropicana is supposedly getting demolished to build the new stadium for the I mean you could say "it's a bad idea", "why didn't they...", "plans might change", or any amount of "what if", but remodeling or a replacement casino isn't really in the cards as the current plan stands.

I like slot machines because on the rare chance I get to visit a casino, the cacophony of "ding ding ding" etc. is fun for a while. Witnessing someone hit a jackpot is great. I'm glad it's mostly other people that pay for that novelty, I guess, but I'll still drop in a few bucks for the hell of it and call it good. DeadFatDuckFat posted:Video poker is fun I do enjoy sitting at a bar drinking comped alcohol and playing some video poker. Again, it's pretty rare though and not big money. A craps table with a good vibe is probably the most fun but all that other stuff going on in the background adds to the novelty of the atmosphere to me since it's not a regular thing.
