In reply to Mike L. Yeah, they've invested a lot. This is the one area where Downtown Grand is killing it, so it's a good investment as measured by ROI. Something like an expanded casino would be wildly stupid.

Good God, how much more is CIM going to pump into Downtown Grand? There is no way they can be profitable, I don’t think I’ve ever seen more than like 25 people in the casino. I find it hard to believe that the casino is that empty, but their current room inventory is booked to capacity. They have to be in it for about $250M at this point ($100M to buy the Lady Luck building, $100M in renovations and countless re-branding and renovation of the restaurants, pool deck, players club, parking garages, etc.) and building a new hotel tower with about 500 rooms will probably cost another $40-50M.

I listened. Interesting recap of the news and info of Vegas. I follow the product most days, so I feel like the podcast was more of a recap of the week that was. I suppose you can’t interview restaurant gurus every week. Or hookers.

I get that Hackashaq is an exciting name in Vegas nightlife, but nothing they do is of the least bit interest to me. I feel so all alone, eating casserole, listenting to a podcast.

I think I’ve lost that loving feeling….

Only an hour? Somebody is getting lazy in his old age… that or he’s spending too much time eating casserole.

If it has a crust, sauce and cheese: it’s casserole. A Vital Vegas exclusive!
