Dang i was born and raised in Vegas. Born 71. It was really big deal when they took the street off Fremont for driving. When i was kid we used to roll up and down Fremont street in my friends lowered mini truck lol. Vegas was small town up until late 80s or so. My parents worked 30 years or so at Caesars Palace and the Maxim hotel. Great video!😊
@@muziklvr7776 they did. 401k was not as common or as available as today nor did union have great pension programs. For as many years as my dad worked at Caesars he got small retirement i think it was just lump sum if i can remember. Was different time in 60s and 70s workin in casinos.
i remember staying at the sal sagev hotel in late sixties as a little kid, my parents left me up in the hotel room. I remember Vegas Vics arm going back and forth all night room from the window. Sal sagev was las vegas spelled backwards. It had a big metal screen all around the front and side of the casino. I think it was removed in the seventies, not sure
I been in Vegas since 1955 I'm 74. we use to ride horses to the daydream ranch.and go to the stage coach.and hacienda stables.and Bonnie springs.and twin lakes stables and ride to spring reserve water the horses and then head back to hacienda hotel water the horses and back home or we would stop at the rocking horse ranch then with a good days. And then we got older and we used to cruise Fremont Street from the Union Depot all the way down Fremont to the Blue Onion then come up Charleston to seals and back to the Union Depot back down Fremont That's what we did in 66 67 good memories those were good years that's when Vegas was Vegas for my native almost
this might be the oldest home video/movie footage with sound! (on your channel that is...) do you have other 1960's footage? btw why the heck is the audio muffled? [from 0:00 to 6:30]
That old lady would definitely be well over 100 years old by now. I am not too sure but I think she may have been in her late 60s or about 70 years old at the time just by looking at her.
Color film came out way before color TV. Movie theaters were showing color movies back in the forties. A TV that shows color film is a completely different invention.
The 1960s had color TV. It was rare but the people who got them were rich or saved up. A few people I know had color TV and the entire neighborhood wanted to go to their house
@@valeriehartman3705 Yeah...I figured it was either a starting comment on that iconic video or you figured out the Popmart lemon. Either/or Very smart Valerie! .. 😜

Your parents get a retirement from Caesars Palace? Union?

@javier mori how did the strip look back then? I've never been to Vegas
This channel is amazing.
I still love the old Las Vegas.
I was just watching a walk tour of Vegas and this is much better
Cruising Fremont Street with Paul Fisher and the Galindos 1965 thank you for memories

I keep expecting Bond and Tiffany Case to drive past real fast in a red car. This strip was used in the diamonds movie.
I can’t imagine all the bustling fashion stores and wig shops!

It's muffled because it's taken from inside a vehicle.
@@blindstreet oh

i haven't payed any attention to the title bro
@@blindstreet but what about this part 2:46

Las Vegas Was The Home Of Elvis Presley 😎
This film should be called "The Fever."
Why do I hear big iron in my head right now?
My god… 😱
Strange seeing Freemont with cars. Last time I was there, it was just really old fat people on Rascal Scooters rolling up Freemont. Good times.
I was here a year before they made it into what it is.
7:48 look at that old lady go! Imagine if she was old back then how old more is she now lol
🤣🤣🤣
Rumors has it that old lady still playing at that same slot machine.
She dead..no doubt
That old lady would definitely be well over 100 years old by now. I am not too sure but I think she may have been in her late 60s or about 70 years old at the time just by looking at her.
Could I please use some of this footage for a music video? With credit given of course, thanks
Go for it 😊
Thank you! Very nice footage, subscribed 👍
@@jdmbeats 😎 thx
Viva LasVegas
Wait where are all the homeless?
My parents were married in Vegas 1955
Thought they didn't have color tv in the 60s. This almost looks like an 80s camera.
It looks like a transfer from film to video. The upload quality could have been better though.

Are you a U2 fan by the way?
What gave it away?
@@vampirerobot The lemon with the cart used for the band's PopMart tour. I am a U2 fan so I was asking. 😀
@@valeriehartman3705 You're the only one who has figured that out this far. lol...Yes big U2 fan 😃
@@vampirerobot I love that then! My dream is to work for them. That video of Las Vegas reminded me of I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For.
@@valeriehartman3705 Yeah...I figured it was either a starting comment on that iconic video or you figured out the Popmart lemon. Either/or
Very smart Valerie! .. 😜
Looks smaller.
Where's Joe Pesci?!

Wtf that guy stood on 15 when the dealer showed a picture? Imagine what the House edge was in those days due to most people not knowing basic strategy
