Las Vegas slots turn small bets into big fortunes

Turning $25 into over $1.1 million on a Las Vegas slot machine sounds like a movie plot, but it just happened—again.

Despite these wild wins, fewer people are visiting Las Vegas, with tourism numbers dropping and many complaining about sky-high prices for even simple things like coffee.

NBA's Grizzlies and Pelicans could be relocation candidates

According to Sports Illustrated’s Chris Mannix, both the Memphis Grizzlies and New Orleans Pelicans have been mentioned within NBA circles as potential teams that might relocate due to their small markets and expiring arena deals later this decade. While the league’s official focus is still on expansion (most likely to Seattle and Las Vegas), there’s growing talk about whether some small-market teams might move instead. For context — ticket prices in Memphis have dropped as low as $2–4 recently, showing how rough the market has been.

Vegas airport empties as prices soar

Seeing fewer crowds at Harry Reid International? It’s not your imagination—Las Vegas is feeling the sting as travelers skip town over sky-high prices. October saw nearly 9% fewer passengers, and budget flights like Spirit have plummeted by over 60%. Even the MGM CEO admitted, “Shame on us,” after guests balked at $26 water bottles and $12 coffees. Canadians, once a reliable Vegas crowd, are staying away in droves. With international visitors down and locals grumbling about parking and resort fees, it’s clear: Vegas needs to rethink its value.

Las Vegas jobs face AI takeover—what’s next?

Las Vegas hospitality workers could see up to 95% of their jobs replaced by AI and robots in just a few years. Imagine checking into a hotel, ordering room service, or getting help at the front desk—all handled by machines. While luxury resorts might keep more human staff, smaller hotels are expected to automate to cut costs. This shift could impact nearly a third of Vegas workers, especially women, who are more likely to hold high-risk jobs. Would you prefer a robot or a person helping you during your stay? How do you think this will change the Vegas experience? #Tech #LasVegas #AI
