This week Virgin Hotels Las Vegas dominated the news when the Culinary Union announced a weekend strike that began this morning. At the same time we learned the casino operator since opening Mohegan Sun will be leaving the property by the end of the year. Virgin Hotels will move to a unified operation model bringing the casino in-house. Is this exactly what the struggling property needs?
In other news we now probably know who will be the next big act in the Sphere as the venue gets ready to host the NHL Draft. We also learned that Wrestlemania is coming to town and Fontainebleau scored a big musical name as well. We also discuss negative comments about Caesars, a crazy million dollar reward, an epic disaster at Circus Circus that has garnered international attention and how the crane atop the stalled Venetian tower has come to life.
