    LasVegas: Aladdin Hotel Is SOLD...

    Its been no secret that the Aladdin Hotel has had some SERIOUS financial problems since it has opened a few years ago and has been on the market even rumors of considered bankruptcy protection were in the talks..

    Well not any longer.

    Planet Hollywood just bought it..

    Can you say YUCK..

    As if that Casino was tacky enough, now its being said that the whole theme will be changed to that of a planet Hollywood..

    Famous for its shitty food,, shitty restaurants, and shitty image..

    Kinda shocked.

      LOL!!

      They say the Jenies Lamp in the front of the Aladin will be replaced by a Planet Hollywood Globe!

      http://www.findarticles.com/cf_dls/m.../article.jhtml

      Too bad K-Mart didnt buy Aladin.
      IT would be equally as funny to see a big "K" replace the Jenie's lamp.

          I thought you were going to say Lightspeed bought it. He'd have turned it into a hella funner casino than Planet Hollywood will!

                    This just in.....

                    Planet Hollywood buys Jiffy Lube...

                    Now you can get your oil changed and look a the Hawaiian shirts worn by Danny DeVito and Governor Schwartzenegger

                    how fun...looking at clothes actually worn in a movie..AND...you get a snap shot of them wearing it

                    not to mention a 12 point inspection

                    brilliant

                            they are going to redo the alladin AGAIN?? i thought they just finished remodeling that bitch.
                            SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR.
                            Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
                            Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                              lol, yup. Various reasons we were told some good things about their disabled facilities which for us is a big deal..plus computers in the rooms is one less laptop taken across the atlantic.

                                Old news, the actual sale closed about a month ago when we were up there as a matter of fact.

                                    This is about a year ago, I do believe at the time Plant Hollywood itself was still under some kind of bankruptcy.. I think the other bidder was Hard Rock but PH had more cash or something..

                                    Aladdin is great hotel..but with no real strip entrance it is killing their traffic..supposedly they are going to just blow up that big front area..and make it more accessible to drive into and walk into.

                                    London Club is the bomb..

                                      There was one up here inside Caesars. Sucked.
                                      Arguing whether the Democratic or Republican party is better is like debating which steaming pile of shit is slightly less stinky.

                                          anyhow it was new to me.

                                          I heard rumor after rumor about this for a while and last Summer when I was there the pit bosses were telling me about it and I thought it was joke. They were laughing about it as well. They are probably fired by now.. Not good to laugh at the company who buys ya.

                                          What a shitty brand for the public though.
                                          Planet Hollywood Casino.

                                          Just sounds cheesy..

                                            London Club inside the Aladdin is pretty much only place I play. You hear things. Of course I can not afford to gamble there anymore but they still serve me free drinks.

                                                The question is, will you Brad Shaw still be a high roller and brag about it when it is the Planet Hollywood Casino??

                                                Maybe they will have a pic of you next to Arnold?

                                                  Now you can get your oil changed and look a the Hawaiian shirts worn by Danny DeVito and Governor Schwartzenegger

                                                  how fun...looking at clothes actually worn in a movie..AND...you get a snap shot of them wearing it

                                                  not to mention a 12 point inspection

                                                  brilliant
                                                  funny ;)

                                                          I have never been much of a high roller. Gambling is boring to me. I get bored, throw all my $ out, and head to cheetahs. I would be better off going straight to cheetahs.

                                                                  Its a wonder why they ever broke up..

                                                                  Annoying arrogance does not attract I guess.
