Lots of changes/sales/rebuilding over the years and - ta da - welcome to the site currently known as Harrahs (across the street from Mirage).
Yes I think you got the spot It was very near Caesars Palace

Remember going to a show at the old MGM (where was this exactly not on cuurent site I believe) and saw a magic show not sure now if it was Sigfried and Roy back then

Also went and saw Robert Goulet and Foster Brooks but not sure where. This was 1976 and a bit hazy.

Funny visted Las Vegas in 74 and 76

and again in 04 and 06

Will I be back in 2034 & 2036
