Episode Description
This week as F1 continues its slow tear down in Las Vegas we learned that a popular mall along the course will be expanding. Harmon Corner is not only building new space out over the sidewalk, but it is adding kiosks and other areas to maximize every square foot. Is it too much or is this maximization just the new normal in Las Vegas?
In other #news Holstein's has announced its return to Vegas as 6 Chinese eateries make the Yelp top 100. We also discuss: an accident at the Wynn flower beds, an explanation for the Strip gaming declines, stuff stolen from The Orleans, a crazy 25 leg parlay, announcing casino wins, the huge expansion of gaming apps and why the Mirage Atrium is definitely gone for good.
