SPOCK DOES DIE !!!!!!!!!!!!!

its all gone now the glittering las vegas

This brings back great memories - thank you so much!

8:17 I don't think she was talking about a movie.😅

Great commentary 👏

28:43 The Trop finally was dropped on October 9th, 2024 for the future Athletics ballpark and Bally’s resort; that Trump fella he mentions is also preparing to serve a second nonconsecutive term as US President.

trump mention

Modern live streaming has altered my perspective, because at some points of this video i was like “let me check the live chat and see what’s theyre saying” …. And then im, like… oh right..

Just brilliant

I was probably 8 miles away riding on ramps

2:47 The Frontier had already been imploded in 2007 by the way.

Where is the formula one stuff??

The Tropicana will be a new baseball stadium

This footage is so amazing please have another copy in case, this should be preserved everything looks so much different know I was just in shock the entire time watching this some things were the same and recognizable. Ceasars palace shook me the most though Im upset I never got to see that huge horse carriage outside 9:22 Also people sleep on that structure at 9:58 I hate seeing it in the state its in today back then it looked so grand

Tropicana is now demolished.

This is one of the best videos of the strip i have seen. Thanks for sharing the Las Vegas i knew back in the day. ❤

Was there 2 weeks ago. Super expensive, bumper to bumper traffic

Narrated n the style of Ray Lindstrom. Very good

The early 2000's were a special time in Vegas. Value for money on hotel stays and food was excellent. The gambling was phenomenal. I always came home with money in my pocket.

This video brings back memories of me and my friends in our early 20s. How I miss those times

U still active bro?

Very cool .. hello from the future lol love seeing vintage las Vegas! ✌️

Was born in 2004 amd visited Las Vegas in 2008 I miss those days…

2 months before the world changed forever.

it's wild that this feels so old but it was only about 7 years before the first Hangover movie.

A month before my 13th birthday and two more months before the world changed forever when the twin towers collapsed.

Smart 🎉are you going to vidio Tropicana oct 9 blow up 😮

down far is the hookers and drugs xrated LMAO

But now we live in evil days…

I was 6 years old when this video was filmed. I grew up in Vegas and vivdly remeber the strip looking like this. Thank you for the video and great commentary!

Thank you for uploading this

❤

Thats what she said

A George Bonanza to see you sir.

Was there only one time in march that year 2001 stayed in the glass pool motel on the strip lol 😅 maxed two credit cards out first night won most of it back last day there . Changed since then a lot obviously . Good memories

This was an awesome video ! And the narration with the facts is really nice ! I learned and saw some look stuff I didn’t know thank you !

Lol, I used to work for my grandpas business inside of the Riviera, I was an arcade attendant, and on a lot of night's you would've seen my car sitting right outside the doors @56:37

I remember when I was a kid my family would take a trip to Las Vegas in dec 1999 to celebrate Y2K

Las Vegas was a special place until the late 80s. The narrator thought things were pricey in 2001, but has anyone experienced the nightmare the place is today? I went back for my birthday 9/2023 and spent about 3k for 5 days, for just myself. $5 for a small bottle of water, over $200 per night plus resort fees, taxes, et al for the room. Traffic was insane due to upcoming F1 race. And the machines are so tight they squeek and getting a drink (bottle of much needed water) from a server, while playing, was impossible! I could go on. I could have gone to NYC for what I paid for that trip and gone to equally, if not better restaurants, museums, and a Broadway show and probably a better room to boot! I much preferred it when there were only 225k residents and "only" 1 million visitors per month (or less).

Gas was $2 plus some change at that time of an energy crisis. During covid it dropped to below $2. Then Ukraine war brought the prices to almost $10 per gallon. Currently they know they can get away with $4 plus right now.

2001 was *THE PEAK* of society.

2 months and 4 days before the world went to shit

Video said "July 7, 2001". That's a few months before September 11, 2001... I remembered in 2001 before September 11, it was my last air travel at the airport with NO TSA!!! I remembered my family & I just walked straight to the airplane gate with little to NO security check in. How I missed that.... 9/11 ruined air travel & also sparked World War 3.

People in 2001: "The Twin Towers were attacked. This is the worst year ever!" People after 2020 looking back: "Perhaps I've treated you too harshly..."

@1:09:25 would’ve been cool if those pines were there still but , it’s just asphalt/concrete now

Born in 2003 even I don’t like how they’ve changed everything…

This is a really good video and narration. The quality is amazing. Thank you 4 posting. RIP to the "old" Vegas

I moved to Vegas in late 2002 to 2010. Nice to see the version I knew.

I miss that old treasure island show and sign

Pre 9/11
