If anyone is interested in watching the Ghost Adventures episode when they investigated Binion’s it’s season 21 episode 5. I watched it again last night.

My wife and I got married in Vegas in 2018. Gone back every year since for our anniversary, well except for 2020. We stayed in the Golden Nugget but ate breakfast at the Binion's Cafe every morning! We stayed in the Binions Hotel last Summer for a night. It wasn't the most luxurious. But, it definitely had an old Vegas feel. Glad we did it!

Love the history and those Vintage Vegas pictures! Whiskey Licker Up and Down is really good. I've never done too well on the slots in Binion's. I love Binion's Cafe! I do like their burgers. Tina and I ate at the BBQ place. It was ok. I gotta stay at Hotel Apache. Big plans for The Plaza...nice! The Steakhouse looks awesome! Wow! What a view! Yum, I love NY Strip. Both steaks look great! Wow...Macallan 14, nice! Great History of Benny Binion.

First time Penny and I went to Vegas Binion's was one of our favorite spots. She loved the history and ate practically every meal at Binion's Cafe, which was in the basement at that time. Good food. Good gamble indeed. I'll never forget the Million Dollar display. One hundred uncirculated $10,000 bills! I remember thinking that each one of those bills was probably worth one million dollars! We visited when the World Series of Poker was still held there. It covered 2 floors. Players bet with chips and $100 bills and there were stacks and stacks of each at every table. Jackpots downstairs were $20,000 plus and easily 5x that upstairs where the televised part was. What an experience!

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.
@paulamckenzie
@paulamckenzie 2 жыл бұрын
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. 😊

Up until the pandemic, our friends would come here every Thanksgiving and we would go ghost hunting in the hotel. The hotel wasn’t open, but we still stumbled upon it. Oooh the stories we have. 😳🙃😁

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!

Another great video! I LOVE Binion's - love to gamble there and the steakhouse is absolutely amazing (it's a must go-to on every trip). Never stayed there - but I heard I really didn't miss much - however, The Apache sounds pretty interesting. Never had an issue with Binion's Steakhouse and the food and service is absolutely 5 stars! I was so happy to hear they reopened. I heard a story about Benny Binion while I was playing blackjack at The Golden Gate (at that time - it was when The Horseshoe was transitioning to other buyers). An older gentleman told me that Benny would sometimes actually deal blackjack for a hand or two. He would show both of his cards when he was dealing - which obviously gave players an amazing advantage. Then he would give free dinners to those playing at this table. Heard he was a class act all the way. I felt really bad when the Binion family had to sell it. It was a great loss to that era of hospitality. Thanks for sharing!

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.👍

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.

Wow, kids! Thank you for the terrific history, updates and tour! BTW, the only difference in that picture of you two from a 'few years' back is that I don't see Dale's HAT! This old man will be out there in November, over the Marine Corps Birthday and Veterans Day, and Binion's will be the 'barracks!' Take care guys, and Best Wishes!

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!

My wifes second favorite casino , the first being the plaza. Once i get her in there i can't get her out. we never stayed downtown because i love the over the top glitz of the strip. But i do enjoy visiting downtown for a night. Thank you for sharing 🥂🥂♥️

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.

Hi you two. My husband and I always go to Hugo's Cellar when we stay at the Golden Nugget but now we'll have to rethink about going to Binions Steakhouse. Thanks for the review. BTW Paula, I love risotto also.

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!!

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.

Another fun video. Never stayed at Binions, though we have visited there. Funny you should mention the South Point, we got put up there overnight a few years ago when our flight was delayed. I really like the place, and have a bit of a soft spot for it. Looking forward to you doing a staycation there. :)

We actually stayed there last year when we were moving, but we did not vlog it as we were busy with the move. We keep saying we want to get back there and vlog the whole place, because there is a LOT going on under that one roof! Maybe during the rodeo this December would be the perfect time.
