1st ever adults only casino in Las Vegas

Back in the day it was a de facto adults only place but then big companies took over the casinos and realized there was money to be made in Disneying up Las Vegas so they started advertising their hotels as family getaways. And I don’t know any kid that likes going to Vegas and spending their day in hot as fuck city and their only solace is their gaming device and the AC in the hotel room

My first trip to Vegas was in the mid-to-early 90s when they were really were pushing the family-aspect of it. Excalibur was built, Circus Circus built the Adventuredome, and MGM Grand (where we stayed) had a theme park. So there absolutely was stuff that parents could take their kids to, and some of that still exists, but they definitely have trended away from that in recent years.

That's when I went with my mom and had fun. Do you remember Star Trek The experience? That was so fun to go to! I was in Vegas when Mike Tysone ate off a chunk of Holyfields ear.

That came a few years after I first went. Honestly, I don't remember much of the trip because I would have had to have been in like 3rd or 4th grade (my parents divorced in 5th grade). The only thing I distinctly remember about the trip is playing a very clunky version of Wolfenstein 3D in VR.
