10 Ways You Can Still Experience Classic Las Vegas!

Who loves the history, the glamour, the uniqueness of those bygone days of Classic Las Vegas? We do! Earlier in June, we attended the Casino Collectibles Show at the South Point, the world's largest convention of casino and gaming memorabilia. It's put on by the wonderful Casino Collectibes Association, dedicated to preserving gaming history.

So, we got to thinking: Where else around town can you still experience some of that authentic Las Vegas history, from those glory days of the mid to late 20th century? We found a bunch - and we're sharing ten ideas with you today! Watch and learn...

A special thank you to Rene Contreras, creator of ‪@TheSideBetPodcast‬ for inviting us to the Casino Collectibles Show...and in turn, for inspiring this vlog!
