Fontainebleu on auction: do we hear $51 million?

Want to buy a multi-billion-dollar casino for cheap?

Keep in mind you will most likely need to spend another couple billion in order to finish building.

The casino on the auction block is the $3 billion, 4,000-room Fontainebleu, and the first bid was placed by Penn National Gaming, which has been trying for years to enter the Las Vegas market. Two years ago, Penn made a failed bid for Harrah's.

Penn offered $50 million with a promise to fork out another $1.46 billion to see it through. Already $2 billion has been spent on the bankrupt project.

The deadline for bids is Jan. 15, 2010.

Assuming that Penn gets the bid, construction wouldn't begin until the following year.

Stripper Mobile Parked at Dejà Vu

photo by flipchip • lasvegasvegas.com

Dejà Vu gentlemen's club in Las Vegas decided to remain a good neighbor and park the Stripper Mobile. Instead of cruising up and down the Las Vegas strip the see-through truck now sits in front of the club on Industrial Blvd behind the Trump Tower. Instead of one of their voluptuous dancers hanging onto the pole we found a skeleton wearing a bikini (maybe it was a very skinny dancer).

All of the attention surrounding this marketing ploy has the County Commission debating the removal of the sign trucks that plow the strip nightly with their promises of hot babes delivered direct to your hotel room. We liked the truck with the live pole dancer and we hate the sign trucks that create traffic jams and block the views of the billion dollar resorts.
