Get a $230 gift card after your first payment of $500 with Melio (affiliate) - https://milestomemories.com/go/melio/ The Sphere spent the week as a Poke Ball, and now Oprah is booking it for one weekend only, a "visual and musical journey" that has the internet very confused and us very curious. Tickets go on sale September 24. Oasis made it official too: three August nights at Allegiant Stadium, and if you did not pre-register, you are out of luck. Also this week, the Royal Resort is finally being torn down, Cleopatra has re-emerged in a free 60th anniversary display at Caesars Palace, Waymo officially launched in Las Vegas (invite only for now), and F1 closed a pedestrian bridge without telling anyone how to get around it, with predictable results. Plus another cautionary tale about inviting strangers up to your room, Adam Silver talks Vegas NBA arenas like the team is a done deal, and the FULL House Act advances, moving the 90% gambling deduction rule one step closer to the grave. Would you go see Oprah at the Sphere? Let us know in the comments.
