Episode Description
This week Wynn and Fontainebleau continued their ongoing battle over employees with yet another lawsuit. This time Fontainebleau is countersuing Wynn over treatment of employees and alleged threats. This thing is getting messy including the release of unflattering text messages and very strong language.
In other #news Rio Las Vegas is moving forward with even more construction with the entire middle of the casino now behind construction walls. Unfortunately there is a huge issue with room security, but what do they need to do to fix it. We also discuss the Bruno Mars "debt" drama, how to score Raiders gear at 70% off, Mandalay Bay's secret Penthouse lounge and when Margaritaville is leaving the Las Vegas Strip.
