While I was watching the "LVH" letters go up on the huge outdoor sign outside the LVH last week, I thought back to when the sign was first erected for the Las Vegas Hilton. I vaguely remember that the first sign was supposed to be the largest in the city--or maybe the world. Shortly thereafter, that sign blew over in a fierce windstorm, and it had to be rebuilt. The question: Is the sign outiside the LVH the same size and height as the original Las Vegas Hilton sign that blew down about two decades ago, or did they reduce the size when they rebuilt it?
