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.

Sam's Town Hotel and Gambling Hall, located on Boulder Highway in Sunrise Manor, Nevada, is a Western-themed resort that opened in 1979 as Las Vegas' first "locals" casino. Owned by Boyd Gaming, it combines affordable elegance with diverse entertainment, catering to both residents and visitors seeking a quieter alternative to the Strip, just six miles away.

The property features a 120,681-square-foot casino with over 1,936 slot machines, 29 table games, a poker room, bingo parlor, keno lounge, and a race and sports book. Its 645 rooms and suites, housed in a nine-story tower, offer modern amenities like free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, and views of either the Mystic Falls Indoor Park or the Las Vegas Valley. The hotel's accessibility features include wider doorways and roll-in showers.

A standout feature is the 25,000-square-foot Mystic Falls Park, an indoor atrium with trees, streams, a faux mountain, and a nightly Sunset Stampede laser and water show. Entertainment options abound, including an 18-screen movie theater, a 56-lane bowling center, and Sam's Town Live! for concerts and events. Roxy's Lounge offers live music, while 10 restaurants, including the Angry Butcher Steakhouse and casual dining options, cater to varied tastes. Free valet and self-parking, plus electric vehicle charging stations, add convenience.

The resort also boasts a spa, fitness center, outdoor pool, and over 30,000 square feet of meeting space, including a 10,000-square-foot ballroom. Its RV park, with nearly 500 spaces, includes pools, hot tubs, and a BBQ area, appealing to road travelers. Guests praise the friendly staff, clean rooms, and family-friendly atmosphere, though some note the lack of in-room microwaves and coffee makers. The casino's cigarette smoke and resort fees have drawn minor criticism.

Sam's Town blends Old West charm with modern amenities, offering a vibrant yet relaxed Las Vegas experience at a lower cost than Strip resorts, making it ideal for families, budget travelers, and locals.[](https://samstownlv.boydgaming.com/)[](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam%27s_Town_Hotel_and_Gambling_Hall%2C_Las_Vegas)[](https://www.trivago.com/en-US/oar/resort-sam-s-town-hotel-and-gambling-hall-henderson?search=100-8607)
