The Las Vegas Strip has its fair share of iconic hotels and resorts, perhaps none of which are more steeped in history & folklore than The Flamingo.

​

Part of the Vegas landscape since the mid-1940's, it was the brainchild of a Los Angeles-based nightclub owner, restaurant owner and entertainment news publisher who wanted to build one of the most luxurious hotels & casinos Las Vegas had ever seen.

And, as you'll find out in this episode of Sin City Stories, sometimes the truth is WAY more Interesting than fiction.
