The Consumer Electronics Show took place last month (Jan 7-10). I have attended this conference in the past and was wondering how large the attendance was this year? For many years, the last full week before Thanksgiving was always COMDEX week. I attended several of those from the late ‘90s through its final year in 2003. In its heyday it had quite an effect on room rates and shows. At its peak I think the attendance exceeded 200,000. I was curious, was that the largest convention Las Vegas (or maybe anywhere else) has ever had?

Would you know if Fezzik plans on having a seminar in Las Vegas to go over Super Bowl proposition bets?

Has anyone legally or otherwise ever BASE jumped from the Stratosphere?

We hear that whales can sometimes make or break a week, month, or even a quarter when it comes to a casino's gambling revenue. Is it possible, or has it ever happened, that a casino underperformed in a quarter due to one or two huge losses to a few whales, and in turn, its stocks dropped? Would the company inform the stock holders that it wasn't due to lower visitation or gambling volume, but simply due to some good luck by a few people?

Jim Murren appears to be saying that CityCenter is his idea and he's the driving force behind the design. Is that strictly true? Before his departure, what part did Terry Lanni play in the project?

Several years ago, my wife was playing $1 blackjack at Slots A Fun when a gentleman who introduced himself as Tony sat next to her. He was very friendly and offered tips to my wife and the other players. He even left the table for few minutes to get play coupons for everyone from Circus Circus. Tony looked familiar, but it wasn't until later in the day that I realized it was Anthony Curtis (I’d seen him on the Travel Channel.) Does Anthony still mingle with the tourists?

I have never read anything about Kenny Kerr's "Boylesque" on Question of the Day. It played at the Silver Slipper and then I think the Stardust. I believe it was before Frank Marino’s "La Cage." Please inform some of us old Las Vegas patrons on this question.

Regarding today's (12/18/09) about Binion's casino, it has been said that Becky Behnen was largely to blame for the downfall of Binion's Horseshoe. It is my understanding that control of the hotel-casino was transferred to her after Ted's death. I have read Jim McManus' Positively 5th Street and loved the book, but lost track of the history after that. What is Becky blamed for? Specifically, what did she do to the 'Shoe that could have been avoided to keep it running smoothly? It would be a shame if the Vegas icon had to shut its doors and got lost in the history of the city.

The Showtime series "Bullsh!t!" goes off on John Edward in a big way! Yet he works for Harrah's corporation at the Flamingo. Has any real-life conflict happened as a byproduct of this "co-worker" relationship?

Is Little Caesars still in business? Also I heard that the late Bob Stupak took $1 million cash in the place and made a bet on the Super Bowl. Is that true?
