Something about this article got my goat. "Hey, you're not an executive? FU, we don't want you in our town anymore. ".
Prices in Vegas have only gotten more and more ridiculous in our current round of inflation. It's almost to the point where those of us used to a non-Chicago Midwestern cost of living can't justify the trip.
Apparently it's not enough to take the little guy's money anymore; they only want to take the bigger guys' money. I just fear this becoming a wider trend.
It's the tourist version of GPS, if you ask me. Pisses me off as someone who does OK but isn't executive class.
Looks like the WWW location for the A's stadium is done and they are now going to build it where the Tropicana now stands. Now what will be built on the WWW site??

I think that the Stations group owns all that area. The large lot where all the trucks and trailers are parked is actually where the proposed site for the stadium was. I guess the lot will being staying until they figure out what they want to do with it.
The last thing Las Vegas needs is more California regurgitated garbage.
The Raiders suck and contribute nothing to the community other then nice landscaping.
The A's are the worst team in baseball and have done squat since Ricky Henderson in the 80's.
All Vegas keeps doing is importing trash from Oakland.
Who's next the Detroit Pistons?

Also what certain people {ITT} don't realize is this opens us for the NBA then we will be complete sure rates are going to go up but if you don't know how to do work arounds and what not then you'll have to learn. This is nothing but good news more jobs will be created and whatever hospitality jobs anyone is working now will just get better!

In this case, the ultimate prize. Murder Death Kill.
Dumb ass tourist who don't speak a word of English thought it was a good idea to pick up 2 casino girls. Hallway video footage show the 3 of them smiling and walking up to his room. About 10 minutes later, same footage show the 2 CG's running away from the room. These 2 Einsteins even hung around the casino floor then later on was posting on their SM account dancing and smiling. Eventually they got caught and even smirked for the mugshots. Forensic investigators found dead Asian tourist in his suite next to the closet, single 9 mm casing shell on the floor.
Darwin strikes again![/QUOTE]Here's the link to the article and news story:

They haven't done anything since the 80's. And they are the WorstORST team again this year.
Garbage.

Extremely effective and everybody feels SO much better!!
Why were these alleged attempted murders even given bail? Bet they don't show up for the court date.
Vegas is a dangerous place with a the like Steve Wolfson.

[URL]https://www.fox5vegas.com/2023/07/07/california-trio-arrested-alleged-stabbing-las-vegas-strip-hotel/[/URL][/QUOTE]What's really crazy is that this stuff that used to happen at places like the WWW is now happening at MGM and Caesars where two women killed a man in May. And this one last week happened at 7 am! Both involved 2 women, everyone here knows better than to try to hook up with two but these poor dudes had no idea and were just looking for a good time. Interesting that 90% of comments here over the years are against outcalls and prefer incalls. I'm the opposite, in my home I can control the situation and can see anything coming with my cams. Yes, they now know where I live but they also know that I have several cams and plenty of weapons as I always make sure at some point I mention that, plus my neighborhood is gated so I make them park outside of the gates and go pick them up. I'm always 100 x more nervous when going to an incall, not knowing what's behind that door or who might enter the room. I went to see someone in Jan, a SW I met on Trop. When I entered the room she refused to let me flip the security latch on the door. As we started arguing about it some dude appears out of the bathroom and walks towards the door covering his face, the SW tells me not to look at him or he's going to have a problem with me. Luckily he left the room, I did too. Be careful out there.
