Episode Description

This week we discuss a new referral promo for #Virgin Hotels which seems strange for the property. Find out what you can get for referring new members, but is this really a good idea? How can Virgin Hotels succeed and bring back the fun that existed during the old Hard Rock Las #Vegas times?

In other #news legendary boxing referee Mills Lane has died. He oversaw some of the most famous boxing matches in history including the infamous Fanman incident and the Holyfield/Tyson bite. We also discuss the famous Savannah Bananas baseball team coming to town, Aerosmith cancelling the rest of their Vegas residency and how the water shortage is forcing golf courses and parks to save millions of gallons of water.
