Did you know that there is a casino named the Las Vegas Sun? It’s in Cambodia, according to casinocity.com:

Las Vegas Sun Hotel & Casino Hotel* Las Vegas Sun Hotel (Casino located within the Hotel)

What they don’t tell you is that the hotel is actually named “Las Vegas Review-Journal,” though they have separate management teams.
I’ve never been inside the Las Vegas Sun casino, but I wonder if they even know that they’ve used the name of a longtime Las Vegas newspaper. Maybe they do, and they’ve got a statute of Hank Greenspun out front.
It makes you think that we’ve just scratched the surface with casino themes. Perhaps media-based themes are the next big thing?
Or perhaps not.
