The A's sold off two more slices of the team to fund the ballpark, bringing in Mark Cuban and a group led by Chan Ho Park that includes Ken Jeong, which is about as Vegas as it gets. UNLV's basketball coach also went semi viral suggesting you could buy the Running Rebels for 10 to 12 million instead of the A's, and the school leaned into the joke before walking it back. Hard Rock started its most serious light testing yet on the guitar tower, we look at a great 1991 view from the Mirage toward the volcano, and Golden Gate showed off room 328, a special request only twin bed room that looks a lot like a hostel. Plus Boxabl, the North Las Vegas tiny home maker, went public on the NASDAQ, Club Fortune North opened in the old Poker Palace with a solid renovation, and Bill Krackomberger dropped some genuinely honest advice about gambling that more influencers should be giving. We close with the Iron Mike Legacy immersive experience taking over the old Flamingo buffet space this fall, with tickets from $59 to $129. Let us know in the comments about a Vegas thing that came and went before you ever got to try it.
