History of the Maxim and the question of its "Mob" ties, Part II.

What is the stage, and other items being built in the Bellagio Fountain lake, to be used for?

The recent 40th anniversary of Jimmy Hoffa's disappearance (July 30) got me to thinking. Which hotels/casinos were built with Teamster's pension fund loans?

What is the status of Big Elvis? You said he was sick. Is he getting better or did he pass away? Also it would be neat if you profiled him over the years in Vegas.

Did Main Street Station, formerly I think the Park Hotel, ever close after it opened as Main Street Station? My wife said yes. I didn't think so but she's usually right. [For those readers avidly awaiting the elusive-to-the-point-of-approaching-mythical-stature Maxim answer no, you didn't miss it and yes, it will follow soon -- we hope as soon as Thursday -- see below for more and don't give up hope!]

What is going on with the Blue Moon Resort/Hotel? I know it closed a while back. Did it ever re-open as another hotel. And I thought I read the old owner was looking to re-open another hotel.

As the World Series of Poker is in full swing at the Rio, I wonder what ever happened to all the talk of moving it to Caesars? Seems like the new CEO of Caesars would love the publicity the event brings to be focused on their premier property.

I understand that Jackie Gaughan lived in a penthouse at the El Cortez until his death. My question is, will Gaughan's penthouse be made available to the public as a hotel suite to rent out? It would be cool to stay in the same suite where the great man actually lived!

Has the Playboy Club found a new home yet since they parted ways with the Palms?

We return with the concluding part of yesterday's answer, in which our take on a recent Fortune article regarding Caesars' bankruptcy was requested. Here's our two cents.
