Part of “Mob Attraction” Reopens Today

I thought that someone out there might like to know that the interactive portion of the Mob Attraction (formerly know as the Las Vegas Mob Experience (not related to the new Mob Museum in downtown Las Vegas)) reopens today (March 1, 2012). The interactive component shut down that occurred last September led to the closure of about 15,000 of the attraction’s 26,000 square feet and to daily attendance falling from about 400 to about 130-150. The interactive portion of the Mob Attraction has been replaced and upgraded with enhanced special effects and 25 acting positions have been or will be refilled. New pricing and hours were also announced to coincide with today’s relaunch of the interactive portion of the attraction. It will be open daily from 10 am to 9 pm. General admission is $25. It’s $22 for locals, seniors and military, $15 for children ages 6-11 and free for children 5 years of age and under. The Mob Attraction says it uses authentic artifacts, technology and storytelling to tell the stories of such mobsters as Ben “Bugsy” Siegel, Meyer Lansky and Tony Spilotro. Since I’ve never seen this attraction, I don’t know if it’s worth it or not to go see. If anyone goes to see this attraction before I do, please let me know (at webmaster@vegasreservations.com) what you think.

Nevada State Museum To Reopen Soon

The Nevada State Museum in Las Vegas is reopening on Friday October 28th at the Springs Preserve which is another tourist attraction. The new museum space will be twice as large as the museum’s current home. It will display the first dinosaur fossils documented in Nevada, minerals from Nevada mines and Las Vegas showgirl costumes. The new museum space was completed in 2009, but its opening was delayed until this year, when lawmakers approved funding to complete the exhibits and hire staff. The Nevada State Museum, formerly housed at Lorenzi Park, will reopen at its new custom-built home at the Springs Preserve on Oct. 28 which is Nevada Day. The new venue is more than twice the size of the museum’s previous location and features exhibits including the first dinosaur fossils documented in Nevada, minerals from Nevada mines, Bugsy Siegel’s 1946 Flamingo stock certificate, and Las Vegas showgirl costumes. Although the new location has been ready since 2009, state budget issues delayed the opening until now.

A New Attraction

Las Vegas has many attractions. There’s a very new very unusual attraction that won’t appeal to everyone but for those who are interested and willing to take the time and pay the price (a standard session lasts three and a half hours and costs $400 (which includes a complimentary shuttle service to/from the Strip)). it’s something your not likely to forget. The new attraction is called “Dig This Las Vegas”. It can best be described as America’s first and only "heavy equipment playground" that just opened at 3012 S. Rancho Drive (just minutes from The Strip). It gives participants the opportunity to experience what it’s like to operate a Caterpillar 315CL hydraulic excavators or D5 track-type tractors. “Dig This Las Vegas” is open daily from 8 am to 5 pm. Click on –> http://www.digthis.info/ for more information and possible discounts. I guess the question is, can you “Dig This” or not?
