This week we learned more about the huge shakeup at Resorts World which includes a new four person panel to turn the ailing resort around. Jim Murren is leading the new board, but the property has a new CEO as well and ambitious plans that call for bringing a lot more action to the North area of the Strip. Will it work?
In other news Hard Rock has officially started taking down the glass atrium at the former Mirage as trash piles up outside. Why Hard Rock why? We also discuss a possible hack of Nevada Gaming, a crazy Wheel of Fortune slot lawsuit, three big grand openings, UNLV's huge loss, leaving money in an unattended machine, the new Strip In N Out and the Excel World Championships!
