Help keep the scrolls rolling! Slide a tip into the Annals it tickles the algorithm and my ego
Before the neon, before the mob, before the Elvis impersonators and bad decisions Vegas was nothing but dust, dynamite, and desperation.
When the Hoover Dam brought twenty-thousand men to the desert in the 1930s, Boulder City stayed “dry”… so they crossed the sand to Vegas, where nothing was illegal if you didn’t get caught.
Brothels, bootleggers, and backroom bribes built the foundation of America’s most shameless city and the mob simply added management.
From “Block 16” to Bugsy Siegel, this is the real story of how a handful of dam workers, hustlers, and working girls turned a mirage into an empire.
I’m Rab Greeson, your dam host and moral compass gone rogue.
Where the dam shame becomes the dam legend.
Short, true, filthy, it’s “Annals Origins: Vegas Baby.”
