Lmao who writes this nonsense.
That slid right past me at first, but yeah that's pretty funny.
My initial thought was that it had to be someone who didn't realize the original Binion's Horseshoe is not the current Horseshoe Las Vegas. You know, like someone taking his kid to Yankee Stadium 20 years from now and saying, "Look at this place, this is the field where Gehrig, Ruth, DiMaggio and Mantle once played..."
Yet at the bottom, we see the post is clearly written by someone from Caesars, or at least approved by Caesars, which would know better.
I can almost envision Seth Palansky pleading with some middle manager in the HR department to fix that language, and the manager saying something like "Well, it was the Horseshoe that started it, and we now have the Horseshoe brand, and when we say location, we mean in a spiritual sense.
"So what I wrote is true... from a certain point of view."

Reason: Still doesn't explain "returned to the Strip," tho. This will remain funny to me.
