Haunted Vegas There are several supposedly haunted hotels in Las Vegas, here are a few :

1. The Luxor Sightings of a ghost have been seen roaming the long room hallways that encircle the pyramid. Three men lost their lives during construction of the pyramid tower. Others say the place is cursed and will remain so until the image of an eye is installed at the pinnacle of the tower, outside.

2. The Flamingo Some say they see Bugsy Siegel's ghost wandering the gardens near the site of his (long ago demolished) suite, when the shadows grow long, before sunset. Bugsy was killed in LA, but some believe that spirits return to places they love.

3. Bally's During the fire of 1980 (when Bally's was the MGM Grand), 84 people lost their lives. There have been many reports of sightings in the older buildings of this hotel.

4. Las Vegas Hilton The ghost of Elvis has been seen lurking back stage in the showroom where he performed

5. Bellagio Actor Justin Pierce committed suicide in 2000, by hanging himself in one of the Bellagio's rooms.

6. Hard Rock Legendary bassist for the Who, John Entwistle died there in 2002

7. Stratosphere Despite alarms, fences, and security personnel, four people have leapt to their deaths from the top of the more than 1,000-foot tall tower. The most current was 2/3/2006 when a 27-year-old man from Bristol, England took his last big step.

Raise your hand if you ever road the Luxor River.
MY HAND IS UP!

Luxor River
When the Luxor hotel opened in 1993, there was a river that encircled the casino level and was intended to ferry guests to the elevators. But when people complained about the 90-minute wait, the Luxor decided to let guests walk to the elevators and promote the ride as the Nile River Adventure. The 15-minute guided barge tour drifted past the Valley of the Queens, King Ramses temple, and other Egyptian-style art. The river was removed as part of a major interior remodeling in 1995.

MOST IMPORTANT DID YOU KNOW WHEN GOING TO VEGAS:
Prostitution is not legal in Las Vegas or Clark County!
Don't listen to your pals, or anyone else who would like to convince you otherwise. Prostitution is not legal in Las Vegas or any other part of Clark County. However, prostitution is legal in Pahrump, Nev., (part of neighboring Nye County, about 45 minutes away). Different county, different laws.

I'm pretty sure the "Everything Vegas" thread will have more historical significance than the invention of automobiles, airplanes, televisions and computers... combined! :00x22 :0055 :0064 :0054
