    I stayed at Hotel Apache inside Binion's for the first time recently and it was amazing. Love the old school Victorian architecture and the multiple passages leading to the room. Can't wait to stay there again. And the rooftop pool is iconic in Vegas and such a fun time with a great view of the mountains. Thank you for sharing Dale and Paula.

    This has been such fun watching this video about Binion's! It's on my list to have dinner there next time we are there (those steaks looked so good!)... and maybe stay at the hotel. It's so interesting to know that Benny Binion was a Texan! And that the rider/horse statue that was with Billy Bob's in Fort Worth made its way to Las Vegas. Fort Worth is my hometown. ..where the West begins!

    Please do more videos of historic Las Vegas. Downtown Las Vegas was a must-see even when the new resorts were being built along the strip. I have often meant to ask you if you could do a video of the autographed photos in your office. Dale has an awesome collection! Getting back to old downtown, on my first trip to Las Vegas was in 1982, we went down to Fremont Street (pre-canopy) and the neon signs were amazing! There seemed to be a bit of a commotion down the block from where we were. When we got there everyone was buzzing about seeing Elizabeth Taylor. Darn! I missed seeing a Hollywood legend by a few minutes. It truly was a special place in its day.

    • @paulamckenzie
      @paulamckenzie 2 роки тому

    That was a wonderful look at the history on Binions! Back in the 90's we traveled to Vegas to visit a great friend. He took us to Binions at 10:00 P.M to have steak from Binions ranch. It was a large New York strip and only $6.95. Some people were grumbling because that was the new price, it was $3.95 before. A wonderful meal and great steak!

    Great video, as always. One other tidbit you may know, but maybe some of your followers don't, when you walk into Whiskey Licker Up and you walk up the very first level of stairs you'll see an actual section of the original Mint sign (which, along with Stardust are the prettiest two signs Vegas ever had, in my opinion). Just a litttle FYI. Again - great video. Really enjoyed it. And without any doubt we are hitting that Steakhouse next visit!!

    Love listening to you both. Makes me want to get back there and stay wherever you are. In this case Binion's. Just want to give a thumbs up for SouthPoint. We bowl in Nationals whenever it's there and that's where the tournament and we stay. So have gone past that statue several times. The only restaurants we haven't gotten to, are the Chinese place or the one where you have to make reservations and dress up. Always forget to bring dressy clothes. But there's always next time. The rooms are nice and comfortable also. But I do give the SouthPoint a big thumbs up.👍

    I have eaten at that steak house, before they closed off Fremont ST.! It was for my birthday in January of 91. I think we had the long table next to you guys, lol. My late sister-in-law was friends with Jack Binnion. We had great service and great food. Loved the video.

    What a great video! I am craving a delicious steak now!
    I am still convinced that you need to have your own show on the travel network and/or have a contract with Las Vegas Tourism Office and have your videos available on all incoming flights for those visiting to enjoy! :)

      Zachary, I agree. However, the only problem is that nearly all of the programming now on The Travel Channel focuses on the supernatural. I don't know if you've seen the program listings for Travel Channel, but the shows have titles like "Haunted Hospitals," "UFO Hunters," "Ghost Hunters," "Paranormal Caught on Camera," and "Aliens in Alaska" to name some.

      @@busterbud You're right, however, with enough push and support...if we prove an audience and a market for it...it could happen! :)

    Love Binions. Years ago at the cafe they had the best bowl of beans and cornbread, so simple but so delicious! I have the picture of me and my hubby on my dresser in front of the million dollars. Great place full of nostalgia.

    Will Rogers Coliseum in Fort Worth, I used to live there. They have stock yard events and rodeo every year. Brought back memories of Fort Worth. Thank you for the history of Binions. Back in the day Fort Worth was the main meat processing place.

    That was a nice trip back in time. Binions spells Old Las Vegas. I gambled in there a few times with not much luck but that's the way it goes. Too bad you guys couldn't have had a night view from where you were sitting, I bet that would have made your experience even more enjoyable. Thanks for a wonderful production, looking forward to the next one.

    Hey guys! Wow that was a fantastic presentation! View from the restaurant spectacular! What a treat! You make my Sunday Mornings brighter.I understand and appreciate all the positives about Benny Binion! Love the casino! Please forgive me but I couldn’t help but also recall one of the most bombastic fascinating and infamous murder mysteries in Las Vegas for decades! Of course I’m referring to the Ted Binion, Sandy Murphy, Ted (forgot his last name) I understand your sticking to the positive.

    I'm new to Las Vegas, going for the first time when I was 55, and I'm 57 now. That was so cool to hear about the old original carpet being placed down. I'm addicted to 'old' Las Vegas. So sad I missed all the old long gone hotels. I still find the Stardust stars the most gorgeous streetside marquee. I saw it in March at the old boneyard/Neon museum. Wish they sold reproductions in the gift shop that you could plug in. I will be joining the public who've been in the old demolished casinos, because, I'll be able to say I stayed in the historic MIRAGE, after it's gone. I go see Wayne Newton twice a week when I vacation in Vegas, which is every 8 weeks now, as I live in L.A. I'm so happy to still be able to see a classic Vegas entertainer that is still around. My Granny LOVED Vegas, and went a couple times each summer in the early 1980's. She always wanted to bring me, and I always refused. How stupid of me. I regret it terribly.

      Hey Kelly - well don't waste time with regrets, just make up for lost time as best you can! Seeing Wayne is a good way to do it, and staying in hotels that are soon to change hands and become something else is another. Collect stuff - napkins, matchbooks, postcards, whatever - because they will mean something to you later! If you are here for more than a couple of days, go to the antique stores in Boulder City, because a couple of them have terrific Old Vegas memorabilia. In fact, even closer is the Gamblers General Store on Main Street - lots of memorabilia from the old days in there as well. 😊
