"Naughtiest Thing You’ve Ever Done in Vegas" -- LVA Reader Poll feedback.

My husband and I recently visited Las Vegas on our way to Hawaii, and stayed at South Point. While our room was non-smoking, we were amazed how heavy the smoke odor was in the casino. Since he has COPD, this environment was not at all good for his health. Are there any hotel-casinos in Las Vegas that are smoke-free or have non-smoking areas?

Whatever happened to the contestants in Wayne Newton's televised talent competition in which the winner would open for Newton in Vegas? Did the winner get to perform and collect his $1 million?

Are there any daytime Las Vegas-style shows? Like Elvis impersonators or showgirls? I thought I read one the hotels does something like this, but I cant remember where. I will be coming out mid-week in January. Thanks in advance.

My husband and I went to Las Vegas on our honeymoon 16 years ago (and many times since). We walked all the way from one end of the Strip to the other (when I was younger and healthier) visiting every single place, just be able to say we did it! I remember having really good beer at a small place that brewed their own on site..I think it had a cow theme or something. Do you know what it was called and if it still exists? Have all those charming smaller places disappeared?

In your "Today's News" section, you talked about the U.S. Mint at Carson City and the 150th birthday. Can you give us a brief history of the mint? I heard it closed for a few years, then started production again for a while before finally closing for good.

I was recently at the Forum Shops and noticed the moving statue show was still not working. A sign nearby stated the statues were resting but it seems to me they have been comatose for some time. I cannot remember the last time they were working. When will they ever wake up again?

I know there has been talk of a "Beverly Hillbillies casino" for years but I could swear there was one small mom-and-pop "Beverly Hillbillies casino" north of Downtown ... was there?

Is Eating Las Vegas really going away? Why? I really liked working my way through the recommendations...

I recently read about a new book that just came out called American Coin. Apparently it's about some scandal and didn't end very well. Can you share some light on this?
