Wynn Lagoon Project to add bumper cars to property. Updated - project cancelled - Las Vegas Lifestyle Forum - Las Vegas Entertainment and Living Information

Among the attractions along the lagoon will be a carousel jutting onto the water and a bumper-car experience in which colliding cars will create audio explosions and flashing bursts of LED lights.

This is the third iteration of the Paradise Park, so it could always change. The article has the original redendering of the lake and new hotel tower.

Seem a little bizarre. Hard to second guess the Steve, but this seems... odd.

Serious question...isn't bubble craps all electronic? Doesn't that make it basically like a slot machine?

If Bubble craps is all electronic already, they should go ahead and make VR bubble craps. I want to be transported.

The dice are physical dice that bounce around after you PUSH THE BUTTON COME ON

Apparently Steve Wynn is putting bubble craps into some lagoon with bumper cars or something

Looks to me like if you want to lay bubble craps in the flesh you have to sit next to some stodgy old dudes. Wouldn't you rather play with some sexy ladies or Chewbacca or something like that?

Not only do you get to PUSH THE BUTTON! but you get to sit down the whole time.

As for bumper cars, the Strip and I-15 are right outside, and for free.

I guess another advantage of brick&Mortar bubble craps is that you can pretend to win every time since nobody can see your bets. Just yell like crazy after every roll and piss off all those old losers siting across the bubble.

I still like the Chewbacca idea.

The light in front of your station lights up when you win on a roll so you know who's on the dirty side and can mock mercilessly

All kidding aside with the stupid park / lake stuff, the other big change is the additional hotel tower is now going to be a massive 47 stories rather than in the low 20s. (Another mockup had 4 unique smaller towers, spread out over the property)

Yeah, but will it be old school rock 'em sock 'em bumper cars where you could actually inflict whiplash or the new fangled namby-pamby bumper cars where you all go in the same direction and all you can do is brush up against someone and exchange some Grey Poupon.

Since it's a Wynn property I think we can guess which type it'll be.

You have to be stodgy to post this. Albeit, young and stodgy.

Cheers mate.

Bumper cars..... What 70 year old exec caught a flashback to his childhood years at the 1955 State Fair and thought that this would be the gamechanger that Wynn Resorts needs?
