Primm Closing Shock, MGM Buffet Rumors & Vegas' Huge Fireworks Summer

Primm is closing forever, Buffalo Bill's will not reopen and another piece of roadside Vegas history is disappearing. Shawn and Mark talk through the July 4 closure, the worker housing timeline and why this one hits harder than a normal casino shutdown. The show also covers a rumor about MGM Resorts closing its remaining Las Vegas buffets, the new Totally Awesome Bar & Arcade at MGM Grand, Flamingo's newly opened space after Carlos'n Charlie's was torn out, the return of Lotus of Siam's original location, the Evel Knievel Experience, the Mob Museum's expansion and Vegas' summer fireworks plan.
