I was there in August, and it was dead. 2am and the whole block was me and a depressed looking prostitute walking by. Ten years ago I’d be in a crowd avoiding pickpockets, but nothing.
Surprising number of Hispanic tourists, so very curious if ICE hits Vegas soon.
I'm Canadian, and this year I went to Florida to fulfill a life-long (I'll be 60 next year) dream to visit the Kennedy Space Center. One thing I noticed, beyond getting "randomly secondarily" screened at EVERY security checkpoint, was that there were no wait lines for anything anywhere.
No lines at NASA, no lines at restaurants, no lines at Orlando attractions. At least nothing more than a couple of minutes, at most. Even the beaches were mostly empty...
Just hold on a bit longer. Trump is desperately trying to turn his shit deals into art.
Well, I suppose if they could appeal to anyone to enter the states right now, it would be people who 'enjoy' big risk gambling...
We need your money 👹
Taking a step away from the reasons this is happening, perhaps it's not a good idea to have a place that's so dependent on tourism money. Cities should be city first, travel destination second.
Didn't they vote for trump?
This will drag down the entire state of Nevada.
Well, what did you expect people to do when your president started questioning Canada's sovereignty? To roll over and keep giving you money?! Get rid of the infestation of fascists all over the place, burn it all down, and then, maybe then people might think about returning to the USA.
But I do find it funny that in Youtube comments on channels like Guard The Leaf or "Not Leaving Las Vegas" there were idiots claiming that Vegas doesn't run on income from foreign visitors, that it mostly runs on domestic tourism, despite showing them actual numbers from the Las Vegas airport.
Oopsie poopsie!
Sucks to be you.
Dont let this fool you, my dumb ass fellows USians huff xenophobia to start their fucken day. They'll turn right back around to immigrants bad no matter what even if its just tourists and they aren't living here.
America can't have nice things
What is the closest equivalent to Las Vegas in Canada?
Niagara Falls, maybe?
I don't feel like this counts since Mayor Berkeley is a Democrat and Las Vegas' Clark county swung for Harris in 2024 even if Nevada's electoral votes went for Trump. The people being hurt by this mostly didn't have the day they voted for, in other words...
