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.

Terry Watanabe, once a high-profile gambler in Las Vegas, opened up about his battle with compulsive gambling and alcoholism that led to a staggering $127 million loss in just one year. Watanabe revealed that his gambling journey began modestly at Iowa’s Harris Casino before escalating at the Wynn casino around 2006. During this period, his gambling was fueled by heavy drinking, a struggle he acknowledged had roots dating back to his early 20s.

His addiction caught the attention of Steve Wynn himself, who confronted Watanabe about his lack of control and ultimately banned him from the Wynn casino. Following this, Watanabe continued his gambling spree at Caesars Palace, focusing mainly on slot machines, which contributed to one of the biggest losing streaks in Las Vegas history. Reflecting on his experience, Watanabe described his betting as a way to have fun, despite the heavy personal and financial toll.
