Before massive LED signage, it was a simpler time.  A more labor-intensive time when it was maintenances job to change out light bulbs on a properties marquee sporting thousands of them on what must have been a daily occurrence.  A time when air was something to advertise as an amenity.   When hot as fuck light bulb signage was touchable by anyone simply willing to jump.  When marquees like the Lucky Strike Club were right in your face, hovering over you, drawing you towards its blinky brilliance while the clicking of the big six wheel just inside mesmerized the dumber gamblers among us.  Thank you @summacorp for sharing a time that I simultaneously love and yet wouldn’t have been able to survive in.  For those of you unaware, the Lucky Strike Club was located next to the Golden Nugget before if was purchased in1968 and integrated into the property.

Twitpic of the week



Las Vegas is the Manze to New York’s skyline.  Sure, anyone can build really tall buildings but how about rebuilding Rome and Caesars Palace.  Try doing that and making it suit modern tastes.  Luxor, Excalibur, Paris and the various other themed Vegas properties all do this successfully.  Vegas even has a condensed version of New York covering pretty much everything you’d need to see so you can satisfy that check on your bucket list.  This week’s winner comes to us from @_lucky45 with a picture that captures the duality of ancient Vegas themes in the modern age represented simply by a traffic light with the name of the street displayed upon it in the foreground while capturing the entire Caesars Palace complex in the background with a setting sunset as the canvas, just to add more beauty.  This picture is yet another example of how photography can be as beautiful as a painting or a sculpture.
