E-476: Personal Notes
Episode description
Random Vegas
In 2003, Las Vegas tried to buy a commercial slot during the Super Bowl to promote tourism to the city. The NFL stepped in, citing a contract that allowed it to reject any ad related to sports betting, even though the spot didn’t include any overt references to gambling (Forbes)
Twitpic of the week
It’s amazing to think that today, this is all Circa. The Las Vegas Club, Golden Goose, Glitter Gulch and Sassy Sally, shared by @_GrandPaD, gone. Granted Sassy Sally was Mermaid’s at the time of her demise but that’s beside the point. The point is look how much things change in Vegas, all the time. On a side note, this is the best picture I’ve seen showing that Vegas Vickie and Sassy Sally are not the same thing. The typical POV shot of Sally’s and this area makes it almost look like Vickie is sitting on top of the Sassy Sally sign, hence the misconception that Vickie used to be Sally.
