P.s. I wasn’t there for the porn conference and awards that my Lyft driver said last night were coming to town. Instead, it was a building industry conference, otherwise this would be a very different exhibit:
The one time I went to Vegas for a conference, the most fun I had was trying to come up with a trading card game that used the girl cards (or whatever they are called) that litter the sidewalks.
Strange, i thought that hadn’t been the slogan in some time. When i lived there i don’t recall actually seeing it anywhere, then again i seen it either since i moved but that might have more to do with me not watching tv and avoiding commercials/ads in general.
Yeah I was certain they’d dumped that slogan back when they were trying to promote Vegas as a “family friendly” destination. That was quite a while ago.
I’ve spent time in Reno, but not Vegas (save airports and freeway motels). Downtown Reno seemed to me to be entertainingly sleazy mixed with a bit cloyingly hipster, with the latter slowly displacing the former. Outside of the downtown, there didn’t seem to be much going on, even UNR seemed like a commuter school. My understanding is that there is the city of Las Vegas, and then there’s “Vegas”, and the two rarely intersect (at least as far as the locals can manage it).
