Скачать или смотреть Why Nobody Wants to Buy Circus Circus (Even at $5 Billion)

In January 2025, Phil Ruffin announced Circus Circus is for sale for $5 billion. He bought it for $825 million in 2019.

Nobody's buying. Here's why:

The property is embarrassingly outdated (looks exactly like 1968)
Guest reviews mention dirty bathrooms, hair in beds, used toilet paper on check-in

Recent shooting scare caused mass panic (turned out to be unfounded)
North Strip location is cursed - nobody walks that far
Demolition would cost hundreds of millions
Then billions more to build something new
Total project cost: $8-10 billion

Industry analysts say it's worth $1.5-3 billion max. Ruffin's asking price is absurd.

So Circus Circus keeps running. Selling $2 hot dogs. Looking like 1970s Vegas. Being the Strip's biggest embarrassment.

Until someone gets desperate enough to buy it.
