Large billboard faces northbound drivers along the heavily traveled U.S. 93/U.S. 95/I-11 freeway in Las Vegas

Not far from the New To Las Vegas world headquarters, this billboard for Minks Las Vegas stands along a major freeway. There isn’t much I can add to the photo, since it is easily worth a thousand words.

But I would note this. The Las Vegas economy was jump-started from nothing to something when Nevada legalized quickie divorce (and gambling) in the memorable year of 1931. The Las Vegas area population in the 1930 census was all of 8,532. It’s now 2,250,611.

Sin sells.
