Your correct the renaming will not last long… great call guy's
Slumber party at Shawns! Lets go Mark
The best burgers are found at Fuddrucker’s or Johnny Rocket’s
What did Harry Reid do to earn an airport? Ugh!
HA! Maybe the Sunday favorites won! I parlayed several favorites with the Monday night game. The sports books made their money back thanks to the Buffalo Bills going for it on 4th down. *sigh*

Celine was such a great show at Ceaser's, unless you saw her in person you would not know how great a show it was
So Dick's is giving it's customers the shaft? I'll see myself out.
Just avoid the Excalibur. You’ll be fine.
Ima be out there with my family for Halloween. Any plans for mtm that weekend?
totally agree the food at Dicks is horrendous… If I wanted to sit down eat bad food while getting mocked i'd stay home.
Singapore transform the city into a night time racetrack experience and the week long party is incredible. A neon F1 race would be an enormous event
Who gives drink coupons for making sports bets
Celine did not cancel her residency, she postponed it.
To me Celine canceled because Resorts World was not as successful as they had anticipated.
It makes sense for Las Vegas to support entrepreneurs trying to build new entertainment/sports/gaming/golf/amusement park businesses here. Vegas needs to develop more tourists growth year round and not rely so heavily on conventions and events like National Finals Rodeo.
there has been rumors of Celine Deon serious health problems for years might just be catching up with her. and people deff care about name change nobody wants reids name on this airport even dems dont want it its a gift from reids crony's for helping them out while in office. and sports book deny bets from so called "sharps" all the time in vegas you welcome to bet till u win to much
Vegas books aren't cutting people who win off…………it's the Fan Duel and Draft kings type books in the states that recently legalized gambling that are cutting people off.
Any news on facemasks……….numbers are way down in Clark, would love to be mask free for our Thanksgiving trip
big f1 fan the f1 at caesers palace parking lot was a disaster drivers passing out from heat and getting dizzy from tight turns. back then anybody who put up money could have a race so casers themselves put up the money thats why it was called casers grand prix instead of vegas grand prix also why they would have races in apartheid south africa lol
Celine used to cancel shows all the time at CP she is known for that and I think Resorts World said nope not going to do this good bye.
I attended the Cesare's F1 race….Mario Andretti was given a Ferrari F1 car by Enzo to run that race one of the very few times Ferrari ran 3 cars at a Grand Prix Race…They also used to have a road race in the 60's at the Stardust Hotel….The Stardust Grand Prix….Then there was the Mint 400 Desert Race that started near Fremont Street….Also the Barstow to Vegas motorcycle race that ran until the early 70's on Thanksgiving week….The Hunter Thompson book Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas book was based on him being assigned to cover the Mint 400.
I'm STILL going to tell my cab driver "McCarren, Delta" when I next come back from LAS. Politics aside, of course.
Formula 1 racing has failed in about 10 cities in the US.
AIRPORT NAME CHANGED FROM ONE CROOKED POLITIAN TO ANOTHER CROOKED POLITIAN
Subscribed 👍
Going to have to agree with Mark, who cares about the name. I only knew the name and about the name change cuz you guys. Also never ate at dicks wasn't a concept I thought was cool. Also sounds like a waste of money, expensive and average food. You guys are great, even if I dont agree sometimes with your views
1:28 Could be social consciousness – we are still in a pandemic.
Hey guys!
Going to the airport this week. Flying delta
MGM sells it's Picasso painting for $100m……..they all look like junk to me. Not worth 5 cents.
Those hotel rates are crazy but presumably because only the very top end rooms/suites are available for this week?. Nobody is paying that for a basic room.
Sky Bar is a no go for me. I'm too afraid of heights and there's no bathroom up there.
Another great informative video. Great gambling explanations. Those Vegas room rates are ridiculous along with those bogus resort fees. Vegas is set for a cost adjustment coming soon. If the economy continues to spiral out of control with inflation and gas prices Vegas will start to tank. For how long who knows. Been going to Vegas off and on for over 50 years and it is way too exspensive. Sad too to the Harry Reid naming he is no saint. Bobby Flay's burgers nothing special In Out way better and afordable. Don't mean to be so negative. I love Vegas just that the pricing for everything is out of control. Your right the new sports team interests are a plus. Well you always asks for comments so there you go. Love your videos.
Why are there 1000's of views and so few likes or dislikes?
INDY CAR had a race through downtown and it was not the best racing and it was crazy to watch it. We went and the wife bumped into Paul Newman in the tiny made up pit lane area. About 15 years ago ish.
Thank you Shawn and Mark; I understand from a video I watched of Bobby Flay's Burger Palace that the burgers are $15 and when you add onion rings and two shakes, $50! Wow!!!! I will skip that one. CAB🙄
F1 will be a great venue for them bring the high end gamblers .
Blackstone sells Cosmo and then spends 1.2 billion on Spanx
19:20 there’s so much sand on that shuffleboard, I thought it was pieces of broken glass
My SW flight leaving Vegas was canceled Friday evening. The cheapest room I could find was at Harrahs for $405 with Diamond discount. I paid $405 for a mountain view tower at Harrahs. I think the view was the back of some casinos and Venetian parking garage. I was lucky to get it. Earlier in the week, I had 3 free nights at Palazzo and 2 nights at Paris in a suite. I paid $268 total for 5 nights and $405 for 1 night at Harrahs. EDC & the pot convention plus other conventions resulted in total surge pricing for rooms. Vegas was super busy all week.
Love the history in your show. Brings back lots of good memories. Another great show!
Bobby's Burger at CP…it's okay. It is over-priced…but what really isn't on strip? With that said, when would/should anyone expect a food court burger to be the "best ever"? That's exactly what it is…a relatively fast burger joint that's doesn't require a reservation. The onion rings were solid.
Ate at Bobby flays burger joint it is very expensive.
Speaking of the airport, as I was waiting to board my plane home, they repeatedly paged one Shawn Coomer to come pick up an item at the slot area. Hope you were able to retrieve whatever it was. FWIW, my stay at Bellagio was quite nice. Those renovated rooms are exactly what needed to be done — got rid of that heavy wood, made it a lot brighter, and opened up the bathroom too by ditching the tub. Much improved. Comped for the room and even won a bit, so it was a nice stay.
Haha “come to dicks, we keep it semi clean”. Love it. F1 would be really cool there.
Half of this show is informative and entertaining. The other half is on the right hand side.
Vital Vegas is a crap source of info.
Sometimes the celebs get cancelled ,do we think this might have been an embarrassing case of lack of ticket sales ?
