What, if any, places are left in Vegas that the Rat Pack and other headliners used to dine and hang out. We would like to visit some on our upcoming October trip to Las Vegas. Thank you for your time and keep up the good work.

A lot of your readers probably don't remenber the Stardust, but it had an act that starred Bobby Berosini and 3 orangutans and 2 chimpanzees. After the Stardust closed, what happened to the act?

I drove past a motel sign on the center divider of Las Vegas Blvd. near El Cortez. I think it said "Elvis slept here." Was that motel anything special and did Elvis really sleep there? I wish I had caught the motel name but I was driving and apparently I'm not good with multi-tasking :-(

My husband and I usually visit Las Vegas from Canada once a year and we have seen many changes over the past 15 years. This year we are bringing my father, who has not been there in that 15-year time frame. What have been the biggest changes in the intervening years? What are the best new things to put on Dad's "to-do" list and what are the remaining old favorites, now that places like the Sands, Stardust, and Frontier are gone? P.S. As a self-proclaimed Vegas Trivia Addict, I love reading the Question of the Day. Thanks!

The first time I visited Las Vegas was in 1974 and I stayed at a Strip motel called The Gold Key Motel. I was wondering if you could give me any history on the place?

My friend told me that her father owned the Tam O'Shanter next to the Sands when she was a young girl. I sort of remember it myself when I visited Vegas in the '50s and '60s. What can you tell me about it?

I love watching movies and TV shows shot in Vegas. I've noticed in the older films that people stood while playing slot machines. Now, almost every slot has a chair. When did this happen? Who started it? How fast did everyone else copy it?
