The Final Vegas News Is Going Out With A Bang!
An era is coming to an end. After more than 10 years and various iterations, this will be the last edition of Vegas News at TravelZork. This will be the last time you’ll see two weeks of the biggest happenings in Las Vegas in one place. This was created as a quick catch-up for busy people, […]
Vegas News | More Bellagio Villas, A Possible Caesars Arena, What’s Up With The A’s and Bally’s, and Master Kim’s Wagyu House is Delicious!
Caesars reported earnings this week. There was no call because the company might go private. Yadda yadda. See the money info here. Caesars did make the news when landlord VICI said it was working with Caesars on possibly building an NBA arena behind Horseshoe. They’ve both been looking for ways to monetize this land for […]
Vegas News | What’s Up With Caesars, Bally’s, the Stadium and all Those Hidden Discounts?!
Caesars had until last weekend to accept a new deal to replace Fertitta’s offer to take the company private. There’s usually an announcement or/and a legal filing to say the deal is going forward. The date passed with no announcement by Caesars, Fertitta or anyone else. It’s definitely a little weird and there’s been chatter […]
Vegas News | Sigma Derby Moves, Bally’s Continues To Stall and Rocky Horror Sphere Show!
If you know me at all, you know I love data. It can help explain everything from sports outcomes to business practices. Sorting Las Vegas casino data is both a hobby and work-related. The Nevada Gaming Control Board recently released its annual Gaming Abstract report for every casino area in the state. While the Las […]
Vegas News | Fireworks, Caesars and MGM Update and Las Vegas GP Til 2037
Vegas News is published every other week, so it’s more of a roundup of what’s happening than actual breaking news. This is just a heads-up for those who stumble upon this and see “old news.” There has been such big news since the last column that Mr. TravelZork and Movestro actually recorded a podcast before […]
Vegas News | Fertitta Closing In On Caesars, $25 Beer Fest at Tuscany and A Movie About Vegas In The 1980s
It’s a long holiday weekend, and there’s a treat at the end of Vegas News this week. There’s a movie about Las Vegas in the 1980s at the bottom of this article. You will only be able to view it if you read every article below. That’s definitely not sarcasm. I added a little color […]
Vegas News | Poolside gambling is open, Caesars is taking over the Westgate sportsbook and Sphere is using facial recognition
Caesars is planning on taking over the sportsbook operations of the Westgate SuperBook before football season. I’m sure I have a lot of thoughts about this, but it’s too soon. Read more here. The awful MGM buffet is finally closing on May 31. No word on what’s replacing it yet. Read more here. I would […]
Vegas News | Caesars And Circa Drop All-In Deals, A Car Drives Into A Casino And Details On Where To Gamble Outdoors
This may be old to you, but since we only publish Vegas News every other week, this is still hot off the presses. Caesars dropped an “all-inclusive” deal for Flamingo, Harrah’s, and The Linq. Read the press release here. I mention this often, but no “all-inclusive Las Vegas” package truly covers all expenses. I broke […]
Vegas News | Vanderpump Debuts New Rooms, Deal at Luxor and Excalibur and Early April Fool’s At Resorts World?
In Vegas News a couple of weeks ago, I shared that MGM Resorts had plans for some kind of “value” promotion. Well, here it is. MGM dropped a $330 all-in deal for Luxor and Excalibur. The key to this price is that it “starts at” $330. Prices could be higher. Regardless of your opinion about […]
Vegas News: Metallica Finally Confirmed For Sphere, Food + Booze Events Galore, Who’s Buying Caesars?
This is going to be a rapid-fire Quick Hits edition of Vegas News due to this stupid recurring virus that I can’t seem to get rid of. All that means is that I’ll be brief, so you might have to click through and read the full articles to get all the info. I just came […]
