If you want to know a lot of Vegas history I'm a 60 year old Las Vegas native I've seen this city grow from a population of about 60k to well over 1 million
I've been really going through some hard times lately so I want to thank you Jordan for these awesome videos which provides a much needed escape from things. I also enjoyed learning new things too!
This was awesome! The Mob museum was so interesting to see. So much history. Fascinating stories. Pizza looked great too. Love Evel Knievel. From the Mob to Sinatra! What a fun vlog. Thanks Jordan!
Evel was at the height of fame when I was a child, and even here UK we used to pretend to be him on our bikes and home made ramps! Thanks for bringing back great memories Jordon!
Hi Jordan so great watching your vlogs Las Vegas and the mob is like peanut butter and Jelly so closely linked ! You showed us a lot and the Evel pizza wow !!!
Mobsters and Evil kinevel wow! . This was a treat not being able to travel the world , you took to places I would love to see and enjoy Jordan. Thankyou I had a blast, much appreciated.,🧡🧡🧡✌
I really enjoyed when I went to the MOB museum a few years ago. It was so fascinating. Great vlog Jordan...next time I’m able, I’ll have to try the pizza place
Had no idea that an Evel Kenevel pizzeria even existed. Pretty fun place to eat pizza. The mob museum is really fascinating and interesting. The frame place did a great job . Looks nice. Been a fan of Evel K. since I was little. So I love everything that is connected to him. God place you and Jah and your new home
I never knew there was an Evel Knievel Pizzeria! Looks like a fun place to stop for a bite. The Mob museum was quite interesting, but a little creepy. Thanks for taking us along to Vegas!
Very interesting museum on the mob, there were quite some people. The Evel Knievel Pizzeria was very nice, he was a very interesting person. He really did take some chances. We have seen him on TV a few times.
Amazing post Jordan. Fascinated with anything to do with the Mob. 🤐🧐 Hope you are enjoying your new place. Loved the video where you took us on a tour. ❤🇳🇿
Hi Jordan, I Went by to a the Mob Museum 3 years ago and spent hours. Thanks again for your great tour! You covered it very well! Listening to the FBI tapes were cool!
AWESOME !!! Stayed on Fremont Street the last time I visited LV. The Neon Museum was #1 on my list. Sorry I missed the Mob Museum. I have one of those alligator purses that I purchased from a vintage store.
Hi Jordan, I just love Vegas. The Evel Knievel Pizzeria looks fantastic with some great memorabilia in there. How amazing to see an actual piece of the St Valentine's Day Massacre wall, gives you the chills just looking at it. Even more creepy was the actual bullet fragments from the victims. I love all the old Vegas Hotels and Casinos memorabilia. I going to dig out my Rat Pack music now. Great vlog Jordan.
Pretty day in the L.A. area. That Evel Pizzeria is a fun looking place. The Mob Museum has some interesting things in it. I didn't know there were mobsters in San Jose. I've stayed at the Cal-Neva in Lake Tahoe. It used to be an interesting casino/hotel. They closed it to renovate it and it never opened back up. The Sands was the last old casino to be demolished. Your framed things came out good. This was fun. Stay safe and take care.
Cat told me he reprimanded her for riding a motorcycle on the street! He said, "I don't ever want to see you taking risks like that.." I was shocked that he didn't ride a road bike..
I have a story you may find interesting, Jordan. When I was a little girl in the 70's my family went to Kings Island (I know you know where that is, you probably went there as a kid yourself) to see Evel Knievel jump the buses. I didn't get to see much, it was really cold that day, and my mom took my cousin and me back to the car before his jump. Of course, my dad was so excited, no cold was going to keep him from seeing the jump. I do remember we ended up seeing him from the car on his motorcycle in the air during the jump. My mom thought my dad was a nut for standing in the cold to see that, she thought everyone was a nut for that LOL 😂. But, it gave me a great memory. My dad spoke of that for years, I bet if I brought it up today he would still have a great time just talking about it. That's what makes great times, just seeing your parent re-live a great, fun memory.
My memory is getting fuzzy, but I believe I saw Knievel at a fair during the early part of his career. I would have been really little, which is why I'm not completely sure about seeing him. He was always a household name for us, talked about the same way we talked about local stock car drivers, so for a long time I thought he was a local guy until they started showing his stunts on TV.
So interesting to hear about the history with the mob, and the formation of Las Vegas. I didn't know Frank Sinatra had a Lodge out there! Feds found out a Giancana spent time there? No surprise he was was good friends with all those boys. Pizza from evil's place looked good to!
I love The Mob Bar, I've been there like 5 times. I could spend all day in that place. I really love The Mob Bar downstairs to get some drinks, they make their own moonshine in there.
@@jdilla4life3871 I'm sure they do. He was the founder of the PGA tour. In the early days he used to give the winners cheap appliances, like toasters. It's a wonder he got anyone to participate. He was mobster from Ohio before he went to Vegas. He tried to clean up his image, and I guess it worked as far as Vegas was concerned, but people back in Ohio knew better.
HEY, JORDAN What's going on... wow the Evel Knievel Pie place was great and the mob museum was awesome a little scary But cool well keep the great Vlog's coming and will keep watching Take care be safe and God bless
My Uncle Super Joe Einhorn was Evel’s contemporary back in the day. You can find my Uncle’s jumps and videos of him with Evel and Howard Cosell on You Tube.
I have always wanted to go to the museum. Thanks for sharing with us. There is a book coming out on the 4th called "Killing the mob". It sounds interesting. Great video.
I heard that the Hells Angels tried to start a chapter in Vagas back in the 70s. but was told by the mob that it was a no go. When the HA tried to force their way in, the mob busted up their bikes and put them on a flatbed truck and told them to get outta town.
Moe Dalitz came to Las Vegas from Cleveland. Vegas has its roots in Ohio and northern Kentucky because that's where most of the people who started it came from. Moe was a member of the Cleveland Four. It seems odd because when you think of the mob you think NY, Chicago and Vegas, but they were pretty big in Ohio and the surrounding area. A lot of that had to do with the location of roads during prohibition.
So much history, yet hard to believe the mob actually existed, but they did. I love Frank and Dean, Jerry all of them! Great era except for all the killing.
Another gem Jordan. I didn't know this museum existed. It was fascinating. A perfect place to have that museum in. Have a great day. Blessings-Judith 🎵🎭
I would imagine that the Knievel family benefits from the use of their name. I’m wondering if this is a one and done location or maybe it can become a National chain. The Mob museum was very interesting! Heart Attack Cafe over 350 lbs eats free! Unfortunately I found my place! (366)
Roy Demeo check him out on the internet he was the head of the Murder Machine in Brooklyn in the 70's and 80's. The Gemini Lounge. He headed one of the deadliest mob gangs in history. Cool upload!
Some things, I am sure a lot of people would agree, belongs in the past, like past mistakes, bad choices, etc., and I guess the same thing could be said for certain incidents in history, but even though some past history is brutal and awful, it is history, and just like things we would definitely like to forever live in the past, I believe things happen for a reason, and I think we can learn from the past, good, bad and indifferent.
IDK, $5.50 seems like a lot for one slice of pizza. Loved the mob museum. I'm really into the mobsters of the '30s-'50s era. A lot different from Al Capone and gang.
Evel Pie is hands down the coolest pizza joint ever, not just a shrine to Evel but Americana in general. Damn good pizza too. As for the mob, many wish they still ran Vegas. These days, like so many cities, Vegas has a certain thug element that has grown bigger and bigger. But LV still has lower crime than most, it is not even in the top 100 most dangerous US cities list.
If you want to know a lot of Vegas history I'm a 60 year old Las Vegas native I've seen this city grow from a population of about 60k to well over 1 million
I'm 39 born and raised miss my city

My coffee tastes even better when watching a Jordan the Lion vlog Thanks for the trip to Vegas ! Two places I had yet to see .
I've been really going through some hard times lately so I want to thank you Jordan for these awesome videos which provides a much needed escape from things. I also enjoyed learning new things too!
I'm sorry to hear that... I hope things get better for you!
@@DazewithJordantheLion Thank you Jordan. You're a sweetheart!!
My mom partied with him in Butte, MT when we lived there. And I worked with his ex wife at Walmart. Good old Butte...
This was awesome! The Mob museum was so interesting to see. So much history. Fascinating stories. Pizza looked great too. Love Evel Knievel. From the Mob to Sinatra! What a fun vlog. Thanks Jordan!
I was at the mob museum about 3 years ago but the basement morgue wasn’t open yet. Took about 3 hours to go through.
Thank you for vloging the Mob Museum!
Evel was at the height of fame when I was a child, and even here UK we used to pretend to be him on our bikes and home made ramps! Thanks for bringing back great memories Jordon!
Great video - I visited the Mob Museum a couple of years ago and it's one of the best things to do in Vegas.
This Vlog was a good one. I remember watching Evel Knievel do his stunts on TV when I was a kid. I would love to see the Mob Museum!!!
Thanks for sharing this most amazing muuem post... you are appreciated 👏💕👏always such great content 💕

Another awesome vlog, Jordan. Thank you!
I am a Vegas local--have lived downtown for years and Evel Pie is a favorite and used to be a locals hangout
Really cool museum! Thank you for taking me there Jordan!
I've actually been to the Mob Museum. Enjoyed your video, as usual!!
Hi Jordan, I Went by to a the Mob Museum 3 years ago and spent hours. Thanks again for your great tour! You covered it very well! Listening to the FBI tapes were cool!
I did listen to quite a bit of those tapes
Thanks for posting this

What a great Vlog, thank you so much for doing this.
In the basement is a speakeasy. Good cocktails! We bought Moonshine they make right there! Awesome video!
I saw that, but I dont drink much, so it wasn't a major site for me personally to see the speakeasy

We have actually stayed at the CalNeva Lodge! Very cool place to stay. Interesting video Jordan. I really enjoyed watching! Thank you, Sir!!
Lol hope you enjoyed your "Balls To the Wall" slice. That's awesome :D
Sports radio host Jim Rome once asked Evel if he ever thought about retiring and Evel said, " Do you know who the hell I am?"...
Cat told me he reprimanded her for riding a motorcycle on the street! He said, "I don't ever want to see you taking risks like that.." I was shocked that he didn't ride a road bike..

Youngstown Ohio always on the mob history 💯🤷🏻♀️😎
Great vlog the museum was good the see and the stuff you have framed looked good
Thanks
Here in Sunny Scotland right now watching your vlog Jordan. Anything mob and im watching, but I would so love to go to an Evel Knievel Restaurant :)

My next trip I found an ash tray for the Cal-Neva lodge for $5 and bought it
@@DazewithJordantheLion Collectors Item! No doubt.
Really interesting. I'd love to see that.
I love The Mob Bar, I've been there like 5 times. I could spend all day in that place. I really love The Mob Bar downstairs to get some drinks, they make their own moonshine in there.
What a hoot giving Moe Dalitz the key to Las Vegas. Kind of like giving Al Capone the key to Chicago.
They have a shrine of him in the Las Vegas country club poker room

Cool man, I'm going to be in Vegas this Thursday. So much I want to do there.
HEY, JORDAN What's going on... wow the Evel Knievel Pie place was great and the mob museum was awesome a little scary
But cool well keep the great Vlog's coming and will keep watching
Take care be safe and God bless
Interesting museum Jordan. Great work.

Awesome frame work.
Very nice thumbnail you selected there, Jordan. 😀 Great vlog, as per usual.
Thanks Jordan! I enjoyed this very much. And now, I also have a craving for pizza for breakfast too. Nothing like the mob and mozzarella.😝
Miss Going to Las Vegas

Hi! Awesome vlog Jordan! I really want to see Vegas now and experience all those places ! Great job vlogging ! Take care ! Deborah. Canada
Micheal franzese came and spoke at Lifechangers international church about 7 years ago..its on TH-cam. Great testimony!
I’ve always wanted to see this museum. When n visit my brother in Vegas next, I plan to go. Thanks for sharing this
Youngstown was huge with the steel industry and the mob. We don't hear about mob activity anymore even though I'm quite sure it still exists here.

They still do. They are more into big business and illicit goods. Not a street thing anymore.
@@chucknorris408 true that!
@@ninamc1 I grew up around it god rest my father's soul.
@@chucknorris408 yeah, I had a few family members too although I was never around it.
@OnlyUseMeDeek yes sir, have been for a long long time
the one Evil movie I saw was done back in 71 the year I got out of High School
Very interesting museum it reminds me of alcatraz east
Another gem Jordan. I didn't know this museum existed. It was fascinating. A perfect place to have that museum in. Have a great day. Blessings-Judith 🎵🎭
A excellent veiw! Appreciate all you do Jordan, Cheers
I have been evil pizza loved it
💗 cool you gotta take me with you😁
Love you 😘😙
I would imagine that the Knievel family benefits from the use of their name. I’m wondering if this is a one and done location or maybe it can become a National chain. The Mob museum was very interesting! Heart Attack Cafe over 350 lbs eats free! Unfortunately I found my place! (366)
the family is involved but not on a daily basis----
That museum is Off-The-Chain. I've got to see that place when I'm there. I'm hardcore into that shit!....So much to see. Reminds me of Hollywood Blvd.
Knievel, stepped on my dads foot in the Butte America airport.
Haha, I bet he got no apology eithet..
@@DazewithJordantheLion not really, more of an oops, excuse me.
Do you what part of Nevada they filmed Tremors in? I loved that little town.
wasn't the Sands the hotel they used for the TV show VEGAS?
Was that The Who playing in the Pizzeria ? Very cool vlog...
@doons403 Thank you. It sounded like The Seeker there for a minute,but my sound sucks ,so I wasn't sure.
Pro tip order a whole pie fresh. It's next level. Way better than the reheated slices. And if you've never tried Pizza Rock try that next time.
Pizza Rock is on my list for next time. Rosie O'Kelly also recommended their pizza
In SinCity, crankin' Zeppelin, eating killer pie....I'm gonna LOVE Vegas!!
I saw on Ghost Adventures the wall that the St. Valentines Day Massacre that was at the museum.
Roy Demeo check him out on the internet he was the head of the Murder Machine in Brooklyn in the 70's and 80's. The Gemini Lounge. He headed one of the deadliest mob gangs in history.
Cool upload!
I’ve been to the mob museum it was okay! Not that many exhibits.
Go try a scorpion shot at Nacho Daddy and vlog that. Those shots are fantastic.
snake river pizza it has rattlesnake sausage yuck LOL, Mob Museum cool 😎

Evel Knievel is a God!
Been waiting for this morning to get here! Was not disappointed by any means! Great vlog!
Perfect thing to watch while eating breakfast!
Howdy Jordan. :)
Wow you’re almost 200k subs
I was one of the original employees who opened this museum.

It's vegas.. things are just more expensive in vegas. It's a tourist city

Frantistic my friend
Is the Mob still around?
They don't control Vegas like they used to, but they're still around all over the country.
They were in the strip club buisiness heavy for awhile but now I'm hearing the Russians run most of it
You want some stories..see if you can get a tour of the Las Vegas Country Club...thank me later
Great vlog. Evel was the best, and I always find info about the Mob interesting. Pretty much anything of past history.
💋Great vlog as usual. Interesting to see. Continued Blessings to U and Jah. ~Love&Light💖C.
Adding both of them to our list when we visit at the end of the year , hopefully! Great vid by the way.
