Vegas Baby Vegas

over 2 years ago

Strider has been to Vegas upwards of 30 times. He has been there 31 times. Most recently for a pool party that featured his favorite DJ. It was half buzzed and totally soaked that he thought... this city that turns so many of us broke has a rich history. One can't avoid mafia talk when it comes to early Vegas. Strider takes us on a quick journey from desert meadow lands, past Fremont st. speakeasies, through the mob strip and up to the modern mega resorts.
