The Fitzgerald Casino is Now the D

Remodeled and renamed the Fitzgerald in now the D.  It is rumored to be named after the owner who's last name starts with a D.  The casino  has an updated modern look.  There is a new Log Bar inside and a new bar in The Fremont Experience.  Up stairs is retro Vegas with vintage slots.  Bigger show room and a new outside escalator to the Sky Bar round out the major attractions.  Here's a short video.

Binions Steak House Fremont Street Las Vegas

On the top floor of Binion's Casino on Fremont Street in Las Vegas is the Steak House.  I first ate here over 20 years ago.  The food was great then and it still is today.  I took this video in the middle of the day.  The views are even better in the evenings.  It is a good place for a fine dining experience.

Strange Orb Sighted Hovering Over Fremont Street, Las Vegas

While walking down Fremont Street under the canopy I just happened to look up.  There suspended form the canopy was a strange orb.  There seemed to be two figures chasing each other around the orb.  On closer examination they appeared to be an man in an astronaut suit, a boy on a bike with an ET in a basket, and the orb was the moon.  It seemed like an odd thing to be hanging from the Fremont Street Experience canopy.   I began searching the web of an explanation.  Not to long ago there was a ceremony at Fremont street commemorating the anniversary of the moon landing.  That explains the moon and the astronaut.   What about ET in the basket.  The movie ET was certainly a block buster, but what connection did it have  with Fremont Street.  I have not clue.  Maybe you can tell me.

Hogs & Heifer Biker Bar Fremont Street Las Vegas

Hogs and Heifer's is a famous bar that is located on 3rd Street a block and 1/2 north of Fremont Street.  If you have the time it is well worth the visit.  Hogs and Heifers is the focal point of a lot of the activities associated with motorcycle enthusiast and draws visitor from all over the world.   As Biker Bars go this is a great example.  The music that seems to always be played is either country western or southern rock.  There are a couple of pool table, but the main activity is drinking.  From a visual stand point the decorations tend to reflect the rebel image of some motorcycle enthusiast.  When I visited the bar I only had a video camera and the security told me that videos were not allowed.  A still camera could be used but only pointed at the bar area.

There is a rumour that the "girl bartender dancing on the Bar" thing started at Hogs and Heifers.  When walking around I saw a section of the wall dedicated to Elvis.   I also understand that there is another one of these bars in the New York area.  Again definitely a sight to see.

Western RV Park Fremont Street Las Vegas

On Fremont Street just east of the Fremont Street Experience is located the Western RV Park.  The park is located at the corner of Fremont and 10th Street.  The Fremont Street Experience is just a short walk down Fremont.  The Fremont Experience starts at the Las Vegas Blvd which is the 500 block of Fremont.  This RV park is not a resort park.  What you get is basic.  A place to park with hook ups a shower, laundry and club house facility.   But then again it only cost $15 a night.  The park has security patrol 24 hours a day.  The following is a video of the park and club house.  They are dog friendly and boo likes the place.


     At the Corner of Fremont Street and Las Vegas Blvd there is a bus you can catch that takes you down the Strip.  It cost $7 for a 24 hour pass.  The ride alone is like a tour.  Especially if you get on the upper deck.  There are numerous stops on the strip and it runs 24 hours a day. 

     I have stayed in this park many times over the years.  Fremont street had a bad rep at one time.  But that is in the past.  There are small markets selling food item within a block of the park.  This place is a gem yet to be discovered.

Cheap Hotel Room Rates on Fremont Street Las Vegas

     Anyone who thinks the days of getting a real bargain are over probably hasn’t yet taken advantage of discount travel sites. Getting great deals on resorts, hotels, show tickets, attractions and more is as simple as clicking your mouse.
     Today’s discount vacation packages are items of real value. If you have any doubt just go directly to one of the Las Vegas Strip Hotels and ask about their room rates. Or ask about the show ticket prices. These discount sites can help you rack up huge savings.

Harley-Davidson Store Fremont Street Las Vegas


The Store is located at the corner of Fremont Street and 3rd Street.  The store has Harley-Davidson apparel.  The motorcycle seen in the video is available for pictures.  I think there may be a fee to have your picture taken on the bike.  The staff is very friendly and helpful.  The store has a history on Fremont Street and has been a part of the Fremont Street Experience for many years.  I love to ride.  I also like to look good and wear the right kind of clothes.  This store solves both of those problems.

Great Video of Old Fremont Street Before the Experience




Video created by VivaLasVegas1907

    I am passing through Las Vegas on a journey around the country.  I enjoy the attractions and the sites available here.  The longer that I am in Vegas, the more I come to appreciate how many amazing things there are to see and do here.  Along with the current attraction there is a lot of history.  And it is very colorful.  Everyone has heard tales about Vegas and the Mob.  While I have been here I have also looked into the history of Vegas.  Really, the place is relatively new.  Las Vegas was founded in 1905.  This Video shows pictures from old Vegas.  In here you will see The Mint and the Apache Hotel.  Both of these places are important  in the story of Benny Binion.  The Golden Nugget is part of Steve Wynn's Store.  And it goes on and on.

Country SuperStars Tribute Show Golden Nugget Fremont Street

I have always wanted to see Garth Brooks in concert. Now that he has retired, that's not likely to happen. So I decided to go to The Country Superstars Tribute Show at the Golden Nugget on Fremont Street. I put my disbelief on hold and just let the show take me away. In no time at all was singing along with Garth and a host of other country stars. The best part of it all was that with the dinner buffet it only set me back about $35. Great deal
