Sahara closing

Well, I'm not gonna lie and say I'll miss it. But I did have some good times there many years ago.

Another icon of the old Vegas bites the dust. I wish I'd popped in there just once when I lived there or visited there so I could say I'd been :(

Always a fun 900AM spot. Take the monorail out there first thing and work your way back.

Oh, well.

I had forgotten about the monorail ending there. I wonder if it will still make that stop.

That was my favorite casino!


$1 Blackjack

$.25 Video Roulette!


Trying to pull off a last second trip to say goodbye!

I can't see a viable replacement for that property either right now. The new "mega" resorts are already struggling. It's not like that corner is a prime location. They should just keep it vacant until the next boom hits.

In terms of construction, I do not think there is one. Was there in 2007, and my key to my room did not work. Took my two hours to get back into my room.
