I'm heading to Vegas tomorrow...

What's changed in the last 2 months? New coat of paint? Is Fountainebleu open yet? Where did all the displaced vermin from O'Shea's (human and otherwise) end up? Where's the best place to buy cold water for one dollar?

Sorry Eco - Vegas had been shut down. Something about a citywide health code violation.

Dammit. Guess I'll have to go to Laughlin instead. Where can I get bottle service there?

til next Monday, at Aria. And no, not likely going to the party. Too many people on this forum would want to punch me in the face.

No. And here's why you're wrong.

First, if it's shut down the only thing going up in it's place is a Cosmo-type of hotel; small, crowded and expensive, probably with no poker room. (space will be precious and poker rarely brings in much cash)

Second, if it does get shut down there's going to be at least a year or two of noisy construction creating dust everywhere.

Third, the strip needs a mix of all economic classes amongst the young.
- The 21-24 year old crowd that is just out of college but not yet employed need places to stay to the keep the strip alive
- Bottle service is already absurd, but imagine if *everyone* in line wanted to get bottle service? They would mark it up to infinity.
- What about the recently divorced? They are likely feeling the pinch of alimony and yet they need Vegas.
- Not everyone can afford Wynn / Bellagio hookers, sometimes you just need quantity over quality.

So we get to hang out with the great eco? Fontainebleau not going to open any time soon. I'd be surprised if it's before 2014.
