Donn Arden’s Jubilee!

Welcome to Kimo’s Vegas ... the Players Edge!

What happens when you pull the handle on a slot machine and the reels line up saying “Will”, “You”, “Marry”, “Me”? If you’re Jim Canfield you get down on one knee and hope you hit the jackpot with your girlfriend Paige saying yes ... she did and the couple posed for pictures and then had a romantic dinner at the Eiffel Tower at Paris. Slot junkies and romantics get the link to see the winning proposal at KimosVegas.com.

Trouble, we got trouble with a capital T, and that rhymes with Pee and apparently there’s a lot of it in the pools of Sin City. According to the “The Daily,” there’s bacteria, urine and other waste in every (pool) water sample they took from Strip hotels… Who would’ve guessed that a bunch of people over consuming beverages on a hot summer day in a pool would be too lazy to visit the latrine? Frank Zappa warned us against eating the yellow snow and he could have done a follow up on what makes the water in Vegas pools so special.

Congrats to everyone at Donn Arden’s Jubilee! which celebrated its 30th anniversary this past weekend at Bally’s. Not only is it the longest-running production show on the Strip, but it’s been host to more than 18 million guests that’s 18,720 performances and single handedly going through 500,000 pairs of tights.


Now that the NFL lockout is over, the only people happier than bettors are the bookies.

Several sports books have taken advantage of the Nevada Gaming Control Board’s new rules allowing them more opportunities at your wallet. The first such non-sports event is the World Series of Poker. No need rush the game’s on vacation until November…

Aurite ... starting Oct. 1 Vacations Hawaii will be upgrading their plane from the standard 757 to a deluxe 767. For us aeronautically challenged, the new plane is a luxury wide body with a two aisle seat configuration, with TV monitors in every seat and the comp inflight hot meal. Go to BoydVacationsHawaii.com to check out the new seat maps, make your reservations and get those all-important frequent flyer points.

For many it’s like a bad dream, but don’t bother pinching yourself because it’s true. In its August issue, Parenting Magazine has come to the conclusion that taking your children to Las Vegas is cool. Hawaii keiki could have told them what hotel has the fountains, what mall has the carousel and how to count cards in 21.


The Riviera is employing the latest technology to bring Bingo back to the Strip in six sessions a day. Fans of the game will want to check out the $200,000 Superstar Bingo tourney in October buy-ins $150 and rooms are $49.95 per night, double occupancy.

There are only 3,485 days and counting of water left in Las Vegas, literally.
