    When we were there in June, Donald Trump was doing a rally at Treasure Island. DH was laid up with food poisoning, so I was just pottering around the Venetian, and walked over the the Fashion Mall.
    Had I have know Trump was in TI, I would have gone and had a look to see what all the fuss was about. So I was a bit annoyed that I missed all the hype. Never mind

    Hehe, me too. There is a new show coming to Sky which is set in Vegas. No idea what it is about but I have it in my planner and cannot wait to see it.
    Thank you all who post.

    Have you seen this? It's a bit out of date now, and I very much doubt that it will tell you experts anything new, but it's well made and it might interest you:

    We are watching "Dice" at the moment. Crude comedy about a has been comedian. Mostly shot in TI where they call it the Tangiers.
    Quite funny but very rude, made by Showtme
    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.

    I was looking forward to it but found it incredibly disappointing. The last episode was the best one I think. Just a very poor man's Curb :(

    Yeah Im kinda clutching at straws here. Its not the best thing I've seen but very funny when they show him running from the Palazzo and transpose the name Tangiers onto the front, then into TI with the same name on it.
    How the hell do they do that filming when its quiet?
