[edit] Las Vagas

This article is part of Wikiproject Las Vegas, a collective effort to improve articles relating to Greater Las Vegas (Nevada). If you would like to join us, visit our project page. For discussions that may cover more than one article, see our project talk page.

I'd like to see an article about the PEPCON blast of 1988, if anyone has the time. It was one of the major events of Vegas' local history in the '80s, even though in the long run all it did was shatter a few thousand windows. I actually added a mention of it to the Henderson, Nevada article already, but I wasn't sure how best to fit it into this one. --4.246.3.1 00:37, 15 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Math challenged

The article says:

"On 3 April 1941, hotel owner...Three years later, on 30 October 1942."

Say what? Check dates & fix, somebody? Trekphiler 06:07, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Opinionated

I deleted "Bugsy was probably skimming off the top". Unless somebody can substantiate it (& nothing I've heard does...)... Trekphiler 06:09, 29 December 2005 (UTC) ĵ=Mobbed up= If I could cite a source (...), I'd mention mafioso Tony Cornero (né Antonio Stralla) founded The Green Meadows, the first truly hi-class casino in Vegas, after his gambling ship, Lily, was raided. (The Green Meadows later burned down.) Cornero started constrbitchesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss fuck yall hooesuction on The Stardust before a fatal heart attack 31 July 1955.

If I could cite a source (...), I'd also mention crooked LAPD Vice cop Guy McAfee & his partner founded The Golden Nugget, & accidentally led the Mafia to Vegas... Trekphiler 07:20, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Howard Hughes

How can there be no mention of Howard Hughes in this article? He went on a 100 million dollar shopping spree to clean out the mob.
