I really enjoyed reading about Jackie Gaughan and respect him even more than before. I'm sure he had many other donations and philanthropic things which weren't mentioned. He was also a friend of Bill Boyd and we 'd be interested in hearing about him, too. How about some background on the Boyds?

To what extent, if any, does Jimmy Buffett have anything to do with Margaritaville? Is he the owner or does he just sell his name to the properties? Great place, by the way - good food, good music.

The "legendary" Jackie Gaughan: Part II

You mentioned the "legendary" Jackie Gaughan in a recent QoD, but I don't recall ever seeing an article about him, his background, whether he's still alive (I know he had health problems) and active. He always treated his employees with respect, and spoke to them and to customers in a friendly manner. He even did things for customers, like getting change for some elderly folks. How about some background and info about him?

Can you tell us which major casinos are now owned by individuals and not big corporations?

Who took Frank Rosenthal's place at the Stardust casino after he left?

In the May 24th news you stated the Tony Roma's, where Frank Rosenthal was car-bombed, had closed. My memory was always that the Tony Roma's was in the movie "Casino," but the actual restaurant was a Marie Callender's. Just because I was curious I checked and found the original story from the Las Vegas Sun, and it too states Marie Callender's. I have seen other stories that list this as Tony Roma's, so, it makes me wonder. Did this location change, or is there confusion on this issue?

My wife and I are frequent Las Vegas visitors so we both enjoy watching the "Vegas" series on TV. I’m sure for dramatic purposes some of the content is fictional but is the Sheriff Lamb story based on any book?

I came across an article from December 2012 that stated Mötley Crüe lead singer Vince Neil was in the works to open a saloon at Hooters called Wildside. He was quoted saying that it should be open within a month which would of made that sometime around late Jan or Feb this year. Any news if this is still going to happen? Thank You!

I was wondering what ever happened to Manuel Corchuelo, the person who had a small lot near Naked City that he was trying to get one million dollars for? You ran an article about him in April, 2010.
