Las Vegas Summer 2020 is a Bust and We are Having a Moment

Las Vegas Could Get Bad Here

Las Vegas is the entertainment capital of the world or was. Having a global pandemic with Covid-19 is not helping anyone right now. Airlines are canceling flights and all around the world. Heck, you can’t even go to the Bahamas because they just restricted the U.S. going over there. Here in Las Vegas, it seems that everything is shut down here. No entertainment, no bars, no night clubs, no massive pool parties, and restaurants are few and far between.

Most hotel casinos on the Las Vegas Strip are open with limited access to pools. You have to be a guest to get in and with the heat index in Las Vegas, everyone loves the pool scene here. Other pool party venues have turned themselves into lounges instead of massive rage parties.

Bars are Closed in Las Vegas

Sad but true, bars are closed here and there some places that will serve you if you’re at a restaurant. In the video above I’ll show what Fremont Street looks live with not bar service outside. We are not sure how long with will last until. But I feel as though summer is a bust here in Las Vegas.

Las Vegas Gambling is Lit on Weekends

But, you come here to gamble and that’s what Las Vegas was built on. The American Dream to hit the big one! The thrill of victory and prosperity in the face of danger. Well, you can still gamble here in Vegas. Permitting that your favorite casino is open. The tables are full here on the weekends. Slot machines are making a bunch of noise and seem like a normal flow of floor traffic when you walk into a casino anywhere in Las Vegas.
