Today the long anticipated Capital One Lounge is opening in Harry Reid International Airport. It is bringing a high quality lounge experience with some unique offerings to Vegas, but where can you find it? We also go over the opening date of Universal's Horror Unleashed including the steep ticket prices. In other news prices are high in Las Vegas and people are complaining.

These days the Las Vegas Monorail is a side-eyed 90s relic for convention-goers at its best; and the butt of jokes plus a symbol of our crushed public transit dreams at its worst. So how did it get here, and what derailed our mono-future? Find out in this episode featuring co-host Sarah Lohman in conversation with writer and monorail enthusiast Eric Duran-Valle about the system's surprising Disney connection, the issues that plagued it, and why locals should still give the monorail a chance (spoiler: we tell you how to get $2 locals tickets on the cheap). And oh yes, there will be Simpsons references and singing. Read Eric's lovely essay about the monorail here. Want to get in touch?

Random Vegas The original monorail was only a joint venture between MGM Grand and Bally's.  It opened in June of 1995.  In the early 2000 it expanded to become the Las Vegas Monorail (vintagelasvegas.com)   TwitPic of the week It isn't anything historic except that it was the first incarnation of the Caesars Palace sign, shared by @summacorp.  You can tell because it only uses 3 of the 4 pillars on the sign. Future versions added more sign boards and eventually grew to encompass 6 pillars of signage. It was never the tallest or the grandest, it's just a great POV of a magnificent sign that captured my imagination. News 360VV15 Update Virgin Strike Tallest hotel proposed

Random Vegas The original trains used on the Las Vegas Monorail were from Walt Disney World.  When they debuted, they simply connected Bally's to MGM Grand. (@LasVegasLocally) TwitPic of the week The Queen of the Strip, as she was known, basking in the morning glow of a sunrise shared by @_GrandpaD.  The Stardust Super Pylon marquee was remarkable for so many reasons.  The font, the shower of stars and how the pylons were designed to disappear at night.  They were planted blue to do the same thing during the day but that only worked when there was a blue sky behind it…which is like 200+ days of the year.  If you look close this picture also captures the Silver Slipper, Fronter and in the distance, the Mirage.

We also got a look at the model for the Guitar Tower and not only is it huge, but it will definitely become a landmark of the Las Vegas skyline.

We also discuss Rosa Mexicano's pink food, how slot tickets are expiring sooner, Tropicana's pending implosion, how the Neon Museum gained a newly restored gem, a temporary casino coming to Moulin Rouge and where Babyface is bringing his Las Vegas residency.

The end of the year in Las Vegas means a lot of people and several really big events. New Year's Eve will bring 320,000 people in town to celebrate the end of the old year and to welcome in the new year. Then after that, the big “Nerd Fest” shows up. That would be what we normally call The Consumer Electronics Show or as we are suppose to call it; CES2017. New Year's Eve in LAs Vegas is often called “America's Party” and is covered by the networks.  The fireworks will be launched from 7 of the resorts along the Strip.  Plus there will be a ticketed event down at the Fremont Experience.  We will be busy and we will be partying until about 2am on January 1.  Then the cleaning crews hit the streets and by 6am, the Las Vegas Strip is clean and shiny, looking as if  as if nothing really happened the night before. Once Vegas recovers from that party, we open the floodgates again and welcome in 140,000 attendees and exhibitors for what is Las Vegas' largest convention.  The big “Global Consumer Electronics Trade Show”  CES!  Anyone involved in designing, manufacturing, selling or promoting anything that has anything to do with consumer electronics, will be in Las Vegas and at this show.  CES  sucks up almost all the hotel rooms, the event centers and any other place that they can hold a conference, presentation or “meet-up”.  It's here and so are they!   * LV Police Release on New Years Eve Street Closures * Las Vegas Monorail New Years Eve Party * New Years Eve in Las Vegas (Review-Journal) * Get Your Own Amazon Echo .   Jennifer Breed – Director of Marketing at Las Vegas Monorail The Las Vegas Monorail first opened in July 2004.  It travels north and south from behind the Las Vegas Strip.  Starting at MGM and making seven stops ending at the SLS. It's a great way to connect with the other transit options when you need to get from one end of the Strip to the other or to the Las Vegas Convention Station.
