 TravelZork Let’s kick this off with what could be huge Vegas News. Tilman Fertitta is the last man standing to buy Caesars. A deal isn’t done, and it will take time to close, given regulatory approvals across all jurisdictions where the company operates casinos. Get the scoop here.
Fun fact: the last time Fertitta tried to buy Caesars was in 2018. He lost to Eldorado, which now operates Caesars. You can read about that here.
In real-life non-Vegas news, construction is continuing on Wynn Al Marjan Island in the UAE. You can read the statement here.
The LVCVA just dropped its annual Visitor Profile Study. Once again, fewer than 15% of hotel guests in Las Vegas received a comp room. Get the details on that and more here.
Speaking of the LVCVA, they’re running an instant win game online and on the Sphere exoskeleton. The prizes include Sphere tickets, F1 and NASCAR tickets, GVR and Caesars packages, and more. Get the details on how to play here.
Somewhat related, the game reminds me of a thing called “the number” my local bookie used to offer every 15 minutes or so. People would guess the last three digits of horse races at a local track. It was totally dumb and random, but so many of the people who hung around would drop a few bucks for fun.
Caramella at Planet Hollywood has a solid social hour deal.
Cantina Contramar at Fontainebleau is opening on March 28 and you can make reservations now. Read more here.
Resorts World has an all-in deal at the Conrad. It’s $150 per person per night with a minimum of two people and two nights. The minimum cost per couple is $600 and includes multiple meals each day, a social hour, pool access, valet, and maybe more. Get the specific info here.
More than 15,000 visitors descended on Circa, The D, and Golden Gate during the first month of its “At Par” promotion. Read the press release here.

Concours (car show) at Wynn is returning for the fifth year in late October and November. Get the details here.
A few weeks ago, I learned that a friend of a friend went to the Concours to take pics in front of the fancy cars for his online dating profile. I didn’t ask about the results because I thought it was funnier not to know if it worked.
Caesars pools are open for the season. Get the scoop on the pools and any fees to enter here.
Since it’s on my mind, I stopped off at the ribbon cutting for Caesars new sportsbook at the casino FKA Rampart in Summerlin. Those updates are modest, and most people won’t notice. The person I was with at the casino had no idea anything had changed. Read and see more here.
I checked out the new burger spot at the casino and was pleasantly surprised after hearing mixed reviews about the LA location. The single smashburger is $10; mine would have been $15 since it was a double with bacon. That’s how I like to test burgers.
Red Rock Casino is celebrating its 20th anniversary with Journey and a food fest. I went to the poolside food fest a few years ago and had a blast. Read more here.
