An Old Fashioned, some red lipstick and a black dress…sigh, there’s just something undeniable about a good ol’ classic. The beloved Vegas showgirl may be an endangered species these days (insert tear), but “VEGAS! THE SHOW” preserved those feather-clad beauties and the likes of an era when everything was flashier and dripping with sophistication. What’s that you ask? Can a show filled with gorgeous and talented women a la Rat Pack era really exist in the here and now? Oh yes my friend, it sure can and all we have to say is raise that curtain and let the good times roll. With a little song, a lot of dance and that certain sultry allure that only old timey Vegas could pull off, this is a trip down memory lane and, well, it’s pretty legit. The costumes are fun, funky, sexy and so real. Ok, well maybe not the candy-themed costumes but hell, their Sammy Davis Jr. sure had us pining for an autograph. For a city that was built on pure, raw talent and obviously dolla dolla bills, this show celebrates iconic moments from the city's rich entertainment history through the decades that made the Vegas we know and love today. And we’ll tip our top hats to that.

In this interview, casino tycoon Steve Wynn reflects on his early days arriving in Las Vegas, admitting his key thought back then: "Better to be lucky than smart."

​In 1967, at just 25 years old, Steve Wynn arrived in Vegas with money from his family's business—a string of bingo parlors back East—and bought a small stake in The Frontier casino. Back then, Las Vegas wasn't the city of mega-resorts we know today; it was a town of just 160,000 people where the famous hotels were more like glorified motels. ????✨

​Watch Steve Wynn share what Vegas was really like when he got his start! ????????
