I am somewhat confused after reading your news feed about the closing of the Las Vegas Club. I don’t understand what it means that Derek Stevens bought the property but not the name or the gaming. The name I get, but does this mean that he cannot have gaming there? And what will happen to the former employees of the casino?

In classic Vegas style, the Westgate announced a Suzanne Somers one-year residency with great fanfare, which included renaming the theater after her, as well as a Suzanne spa, cosmetics store and an organic cafe. However they were quick to throw in the towel and quietly abandon everything "Suzanne" after just a few short months. I'll assume it all comes down to dollars and, at this stage of her career, she just wasn't the draw that someone thought she would be. But why wouldn't the Westgate (or any hotel/casino, for that matter) start with a much shorter residency first to determine how any star would draw before deciding to go "all in" on them? Or is that just typical Vegas hype at its best?

We know that there are no parts of the "original" Flamingo Hotel still around. How about the Tropicana, which I believe is now [with the closing of the Riv] the next-oldest strip casino left?
