The Mirage opened in 1989 as the first megaresort on the Las Vegas Strip. This week the property is closing forever to be converted into Hard Rock Las Vegas, but the hotel has already closed. What was the experience like staying in Mirage on its last night and how does the property hold up after all of these years?

In other news we take a look at the latest progress on the Tropicana demolition. We also discuss some quick eats at Virgin, a crazy Mt. Charleston accident, bats on Fremont Street, a very good new happy hour, new Sphere shows and why valet policies on the Strip may be changing soon.
