If they implode the old gal, somebody take some pics pls.

She'll be back, sooner than you think.

I stayed at the HGVC property accross the street from the Sahara this past December. Aside from the Sahara itself the only other place worth visiting in that neighborhood was the tiny little Peppermill Diner and Lounge...and now thats the only thing that neighborhood has to offer.

It doesn't seem fair that a cool place like Sahara goes under while the Staff-infected-freak-show, Circus Circus, still stands.

My neighbors were there today for the last day. One of their friends won $400 on a penny slot.

I put Sam Nazarian the owner of the Sahara in the same company as Saddam Hussien and Osama Bin Ladin. He needs to be buried at sea for closing it down instead of fixing the place up. Bastard!
