60 floor hotel after 60 floor hotel after 60 floor hotel

All working flawlessly with food, shows, gambling, hotel amenities, pools, and a million other things all in a row

You ever think about the little things? Like you know how a bulb will randomly go out in a building sign? Like the "s" in Caesars palace? Think about how the fuck they would replace that, even if it ever went out

All of it really is unreal

Pretty sure they don't use light bulbs unless they're being nostalgic. Water would be my thinking, but hell look at Phoenix. They get along ok.

Yes, but not in a good way. More like "how the fuck is it possible to go from neon casino wonderland to homeless-infested ghetto just by walking a few blocks?"

Easily. Mafia needed something to launder their money and Vegas fulfilled that purpose.

Prostitution is NOT legal here.
It's not legal on Clark County (which is basically Vegas).

You got to go out to the desert for that.

There are teams of people who inspect things like signs on a weekly basis. I actually used to source those services for the hotels in Vegas

that must be bizarre. at least things are progressing, i've been observing some streams/videos of the area and it seems like things are super close to back to normal (minus masks). They're saying may 1 will be damn near full steam ahead (keeping masks mandate though)

how does one inspect those signs? does someone go up on a cherry-picker thing or down from the roof on like a scaffolding?

I worked on the strip for a year. It makes perfect sense after you really immerse yourself in the culture of that city. Everyone says "Oh I could never live there." but that's because they've never spent more than a few days in the immediate area of the strip. There's SO much more.

It's absolutely different and you're showing how little you know about the actual city.

Basically yes to both of those. There's probably also a clause in the service contract that says they'll only replace stuff at like 4am and shit like that as to not disrupt normal tourist traffic unless it's a repair badly needed

Could be seen from around 80 miles away on a clear night too. At least if you're driving from Arizona. Not bad for a small city
