A new pizza restaurant is coming soon to Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood. Giro Grano. This concept will have an all you can eat style format inspired by the Brazilian churrascaria, where servers circulate continuously bringing food to your table. Instead of a variety of meats, it will be different pizzas. No opening date given yet.

Here’s what opening day is looking like at The Hat in Las Vegas at lunchtime. The drive thru line is all the way down the street and the line to get in to the restaurant is out into the parking lot. There is a reason why all of these people are waiting a long time for a pastrami sandwich.

Resorts World Poker Room dealt their last hand of poker yesterday. They are now officially closed. This is the second Las Vegas Strip poker room to close in 2026, leaving eight left on the strip and four off strip. Resorts World Poker Room hosted the Pokerstars NAPT which saw declining attendance. While the room was nice, it was often empty. The poker room opened with the property in June 2021 and ran for just under 5 years.

Unfortunately, I don’t have any new drone footage to share of the new baseball stadium being built on the Tropicana site. FAA has denied all of my recent airspace authorization requests. As the stadium gets bigger and more structures go vertical on the property, it’s going to be hard to get approved to fly that area. So, here is some footage of what it looks like from the mezzanine balcony at New York New York. In the meantime, I need to work on my safety statement to FAA so I can continue to fly this site.

What happens when an autonomous robotaxi gets into an accident? So far, nothing. Yesterday, I rode in a Zoox robotaxi and got hit by an RTC bus in front of New York New York. The Zoox was trying to turn right into New York New York on Tropicana Avenue just after crossing Las Vegas Boulevard and the bus was trying to get over to make its stop. What I saw, was the RTC bus merging into the front left of the Zoox robotaxi and then a crunching sound followed by a grinding sound. Pretty sure it was the RTC bus at fault. Impact detected. The Zoox robotaxi stayed in place while a warning popped up on the user display. Zoox support came over the in-car speaker and asked if I was okay and then eventually had me exit the vehicle at the New York New York rideshare area. Then, it just took off. The RTC bus? It also took off. The driver never got out to check to see what happened. Loaded up some passengers and went about the day. Nobody stayed around to file a police report, so I did. The Nevada State Troopers are scratching their heads at what to do here and so am I. Now I have a lot of questions that won’t get answered probably. I am okay and not injured thankfully, just shaken up a bit. As far as riding Zoox again, I feel it is safe to ride and highly recommend trying it out if you haven’t. On a side note: The Zoox took the hit pretty well and I couldn’t see damage when I checked it out. The bus had a nice scrape on its right wheel fender. I will keep you all updated on this.

A year ago this month, Hooters of America claimed bankruptcy. Known for their iconic orange shorts and white tank top outfits worn by Hooters Girls and signature chicken wings, there are no Hooters restaurants left in Las Vegas. They abruptly closed their OYO Las Vegas location last August with employees given little notice. Is Hooters ever coming back to OYO?

Here is what a $9 dollar per night room at Harrah’s Las Vegas looks like. Resort fee is $50 dollars per night. It was apparent the $20 dollar trick wasn’t going to work so we let it ride.

One year ago this week, this is what the Tropicana Las Vegas site was looking like. There is a lot happening with construction right now and it's really starting to look like a baseball stadium. Once it's built, you will see how they will be able to squeeze the resort, retail spaces and parking in. I will have some updated drone footage soon.

Ole Red is absolutely packed today. There was no special event and the line was all the way out to the escalators. Plus, they had the addition of The Backyard pop up. Bottled Blonde had no line to get in.

Planet Hollywood Hip Room walkthrough. Room rate was $9 dollars plus the $50 dollar resort fee. Not a bad deal for a decent room. Tried using the kiosks to check in only to have to get in line with everyone else. They were nice to waive my early check in fee. And no, I didn’t do the $20 dollar sandwich trick. The last time I stayed at Planet Hollywood, it was Aladdin. I would definitely stay here again.

I got to ride the Zoox Robotaxi today. It is pretty amazing and I can see these being very popular in the future. You can ride it too over at Resorts World Las Vegas where you catch the rideshares on the way to self parking. There are two routes and I got to do both. One route goes around the Resorts World property and the other heads down near Luxor and Excalibur and back. The rides are complimentary for now.

Post-groundbreaking ceremony drone footage of the Tropicana site and future Las Vegas Athletics ballpark. This is what is currently happening at the site. It looks like some foundation work is being done in the center of the property. At the northwest corner of the property, near the pedestrian bridge escalators, the underground garage/storage has been opened up to sunlight. I will post a couple of photos as well.

There is a surf machine on the Las Vegas Strip and it’s pretty cool! The Flowrider at Planet Hollywood is located on the Scene Pool Deck on the 6th floor. There are two ways to ride. The first way is bodyboarding. The second way is flowboarding which is a little more like surfing. It’s $35 dollars for a 30 minute pass or about $100 dollars for the day pass. I have a night booked at Planet Hollywood in April so I might have to check this out.

Hollywood 2.0? This is the proposed site of the new $1.8 billion, 31 acre, Summerlin Studios backed by Mark Wahlberg and Sony Pictures. It sits along Flamingo Road across from the Siena Golf Course and community between Hualapai Way and Town Center Drive just off the 215 Beltway, about 10 miles west of the Las Vegas Strip. The project has stalled after the Nevada Senate rejected a bill to offer tax credits to the studios. This site has a lot of land for a movie studio, but I just don't see it as a good fit to the area.
