Yes, they could call the street "Mr. Lee the Loser Lane"

If they named a street after Darvin Moon, it wouldn't go where it said it would.
If they named a street after Hellmuth, it would lead to the scrapheap.
If they named a street after David Williams, it would be pedestrians only.

Maybe the time is right for a Doyle Brunson Blvd. since this month a Vegas Street was name for the late Bob Stupak, a big poker enthusiast and casino owner.

Maybe they could name streets in a bad part of North Las Vegas or in a trailer court after busto players and railbirds:

Eskimo Clark Way
Sam Grizzle Avenue
etc.

There is a tendency hereto name schools, rather than streets:

Elaine Wynn Elementary School
Barbara and Hank Greenspun Middle School

and also to go heavily toward local, living politicians, which can have interesting implications if they are indicted down the road.



Sometimes the spelling is off:

"Located near Ann and Fort Apache roads, it's spelled Bugsy Segal Circle."

There is an RJ article on point re other streets:

"Streets in a subdivision in Henderson are named for fictional characters from the Lord of the Rings books written by J.R.R. Tolkien. The names include Shadowfax Road, Longshanks Way and Strider Drive.

A subdivision near Silverado High School in the south valley has streets named after 20 Los Angeles Dodgers, including Roy Campanella, Delino DeShields, Gil Hodges, Hideo Nomo, and Jose Offerman.

My personal favorite is the subdivision near Lamb and Russell Road where streets are named for Star Wars characters, including Skywalker Avenue, Leia Street and Vader Avenue."

"LAS VEGAS -- During a year-long gambling binge at the Caesars Palace and Rio casinos in 2007, Terrance Watanabe managed to lose nearly $127 million.

The run is believed to be one of the biggest losing streaks by an individual in Las Vegas history. It devoured much of Mr. Watanabe's personal fortune, he says, which he built up over more than two decades running his family's party-favor import business in Omaha, Neb. It also benefitted the two casinos' parent company, Harrah's Entertainment Inc., which derived about 5.6% of its Las Vegas gambling revenue from Mr. Watanabe that year."

Mr. Watanabe is also the answer to that "cute" dialogue from Cocktail, where Tom Cruise and Elizabeth Shue are discussing who is the guy who invented those little cocktail umbrellas and is making millions.
