Vegas Mate Review of the Week - Carmen's Sept 20th review of Paris - 4/5 chips

Twitpic of the Week



This weeks winner goes to @CircusVegas for its Flashback Friday picture of Circus Circus in 1975.  The picture shows the original Circus Circus carousel marquee as well as the strip front fountains.  In 1975, just 7 years old, Circus Circus was under new management, just opened an expansion to the hotel and was on its way to become in the most profitable property in Vegas by catering to the low roller.  This picture just took me right to 1975 Las Vegas.  It was fascinating to see a building I’m so familiar with in a setting I wasn’t alive to experience.

Vegas Mate Review of the Week - JohnR’s Sept 14th review of Viva Elvis @Aria – 5/5 chips

Twitpic of the Week




This week’s winner comes to us from a listener in Australia and a new member to the twitter community, @miffo34It’s a picture of the Vegas strip taken from the south crosswalk in between MGM and NYNY.  How he got this picture without including the dirty, smuggled and nicked up Plexiglas all of my pictures have from the same place, I’m dying to know.  The picture gives you a great look at a cloudless Vegas sky while grabbing a little bit of several Vegas properties.  He did a good job of capturing what you actually see from this vantage point and not what your camera captures.  It’s a great picture and we are thrilled to add it to our collection of “Twitpics of the week”.
