Atlantic City | TBT | You’re FIRED! TRUMP PLAZA, Atlantic City CLOSES!

Las Vegas | Update: The Downtown Grand Still Has A Pulse

A while back, we were tipped off by some VIP high level players of the Downtown Grand that the hotel was set to close. Amidst a bevy of layoffs, schedule changes, and venue closing, the news really didn’t seem too far off the mark from being what could be more than just an extremely viable […]
