MTM Vegas - Fun, Interesting & Absurd Sides of Vegas!

Save on Las Vegas Advisor Membership with code MTM! - https://milestomemories.com/go/lva2/ The NBA has narrowed Las Vegas down to three billionaire groups, two of the bidders just joined forces, and the price tag with an arena is now $12 to $13 billion. We break down who looks like the favorite and why Seattle fans should care how this ends. Also this week, Bill Krackomberger's video of prop bet odds changing on him mid-bet at Resorts World, the Four Seasons towers topping off in Henderson at prices that will make your eyes water, and Mark Wahlberg welcoming everyone back to a completely transformed Suncoast. Plus Carrot Top's comeback show sells out, the flying monkeys escape the Sphere, John Mayer joins the schedule, a 1990 promo video that captures Vegas right before everything changed, and August numbers that tell a more interesting story than the headlines. We are also giving away a Las Vegas Advisor book: leave a comment with your favorite thing to do in Vegas and include "Las Vegas Advisor" to enter.

We break down what happened and why a private Caesars and a public MGM could make for a fascinating rivalry. Also this week, the Bellagio Conservatory's fall display by the numbers (500,000 leaves, and yes, someone counted), a $50 cheesesteak pizza and the cheese baby, a correction on Vegas' Michelin Keys, Club Boomer at Jerry's Nugget, and a $59 all you can eat and drink football deal at Atomic Golf. Plus the Hooters chicken squawk we need back, Tape Face coming through in a big way, Daylight Beach Club's sports-bar makeover, and the eternal mystery of why everyone waits in line at the Strip Starbucks.

Capital One Venture 75K + $300 more info on our site: https://milestomemories.com/capital-one-venture-rewards-credit-card/ Caesars shareholders voted this week, and it was not close: the Fertitta takeover passed with a landslide at $31 a share, and now it goes to gaming regulators across the country. We also dig into the Plaza's Jonathan Jossel asking whether Vegas has become too dependent on big events, what Brightline's bankruptcy means for the Vegas train, and the news that Vegas Matt's story is being developed into a Hollywood movie. Wayne Newton's legendary Casa de Shenandoah estate is set to become 77 homes, the Vegas 5 Day Sale snuck back with one standout Fremont deal, Fontainebleau held on to the only Michelin Key in town, and a former Resorts World compliance director says he was fired for raising red flags. Plus Mark takes the blind Vegas hotel ranker live on air, and it does not go well. Is Vegas too dependent on big events? Let us know in the comments.

We also send our best to Carrot Top, one of the most underrated performers in Vegas, as he recovers. Then it is a very Vegas grab bag: $36 bottomless beer for Monday and Thursday Night Football at Beer Park, a Zoox getting rear-ended on Decatur (you decide who is at fault), Westgate showing off its most over the top bathtubs, and a Sir Mix-A-Lot slot machine that is exactly what you think it is. A new report shows investors own 43% of Las Vegas homes, a share only New York and a handful of California cities top, and we get into why. Plus a look inside an abandoned hotel tower in Jean before it comes down, the EDC team putting real money into Commercial Center, Golden Gate's new high limit room, and Derek Stevens making Circa the A's first founding partner while promising the best ballpark ever built. Would you sit in a dugout suite? Let us know in the comments.

Tickets go on sale September 24. Oasis made it official too: three August nights at Allegiant Stadium, and if you did not pre-register, you are out of luck. Also this week, the Royal Resort is finally being torn down, Cleopatra has re-emerged in a free 60th anniversary display at Caesars Palace, Waymo officially launched in Las Vegas (invite only for now), and F1 closed a pedestrian bridge without telling anyone how to get around it, with predictable results. Plus another cautionary tale about inviting strangers up to your room, Adam Silver talks Vegas NBA arenas like the team is a done deal, and the FULL House Act advances, moving the 90% gambling deduction rule one step closer to the grave. Would you go see Oprah at the Sphere? Let us know in the comments.
