We discuss what it was like to be on the Strip for NYE, how some of the fancy parties went, why it still rains on Fremont Street and what the overall vibe was around the city. Is visiting Vegas on New Year's Eve an activity worth pursuing? In other news MGM has launched a secret new tier for high spending non-gamblers. Is the new Fountain Club membership needed and is this just another sign that Vegas doesn't care about normies anymore? We also discuss: cool historic Vegas coins, Raiders firing Pete Carroll, Zoox getting stuck, the future of Vegas Valet, Disco Show's bars, Rio's $10 burger special and the most expensive homes in Las Vegas.
