Vegas News | Rio Plans Develop, Fontainebleau Will Have Poolside Gaming And A Naked Man At Harrah’s
We’re changing Vegas News a little. Instead of posting weekly, we’re going to share the Vegas News every other week. This will make the news rundowns more concise with less fluff and easier to navigate. This will also give us a chance to dive deeper into specific newsy topics.
Vegas News | New Casino Games, The Venetian Is Changing And Bally’s Opens An Arcade
The Global Gaming Expo (G2E) blew through Las Vegas this week. As always, it was a fun time seeing new games, meeting new people, and connecting with others I don’t see very often.
Vegas NEWs | New MGM Grand Rooms, New Buffalo Slot And New Construction Update
This week we will get to a new construction update as well as some current renovations. We mentioned that MGM Resorts planned on renovating a portion of the rooms at MGM Grand after the company’s recent earnings call. Some of the rooms in the newly named Studio Tower (former West Wing) will be available in late October. The rest should be completed before the end of the year.
Vegas News | Mask Up Vegas and Get Down!
As expected a couple of weeks ago, you once again have to wear a mask (“Mask Up Vegas”) when indoors in Las Vegas. This mandate is for everyone – vaccinated and unvaccinated people. There’s no timeframe on how long this will last. I’d rather spend my time talking about a new casino, earnings, new slot machines so I’m going to move on.

Vegas News | Circa And Resorts World Renderings Drop While Las Vegas Continues To Reopen
This Vegas News column is not your one-stop shop for information on the virus. We’re not going to avoid discussing COVID-19 but will focus more on what you can do today and tomorrow when visiting Las Vegas.
Vegas News | Jimbo Out, Bet MGM Soon and another Look at Vegas Rumors
This week in Las Vegas was dominated by one story. No, it wasn’t MGM Resorts announcing new sustainable sourcing goals for eggs and chickens. Just prior to reporting earnings, MGM Resorts sent out a press release that Jim Murren, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, informed the Company’s Board of Directors that he will step down from his positions before his contract expires.
Vegas News | 888 Reasons to Read The Vegas News
We’re going to jump right into the Vegas News this week because I found a new document just as I was sitting down.
Vegas News | New Booze Fees, Football Season, and Drama
We’re heading into my second favorite time of the year to be in Las Vegas. Temperatures cool but aren’t really cool. It’s warm but not hot. It’s still iced coffee weather but air conditioning isn’t necessary. It’s the best time to enjoy the great outdoors.
