Can you tell us more about Jean, NV? I've read things here and there about its origins, and that MGM bought the properties to create some sort of residential community (if I remember correctly), but as we know, they've torn down one casino and haven't done anything with it yet. So, I guess my questions are: Why is it that two hotel/casinos were built in such a seemingly random location (and were able to survive so long), and is there any update about future plans for the land?

I just read, in LVA's Today's News, about the "Las Vegas 51s" baseball team. I didn't know about this team, and might want to see a game during a future trip to LV -- especially if I'm losing heavy at video poker. I assume that I can find out some info about this team on Google, but I'd like to know if there are any more casino-sponsored "specials" like this one at the Golden Gate. Also, do you have any info about other amateur/semi-pro/minor league/school sports teams’ games that LV visitors might be interested in attending?
