Every city has a moniker. Reno has "Biggest little city in the world", NYC has "The Big Apple". Chicago has "Windy City"...etc.

Las Vegas is commonly called Sin City, which is cool...but old. Its no secret i have lost that lovin' feeling for my city, i want out of here, but while i must stay for the next few years, i want to have fun at its expense. I know none of you like this shithole either, so lets make a new moniker for it. Make as many as you like...and feel free to name your own town if you want to criticize it without seeming too negative.

NYC is the city that never sleeps, i think Las Vegas should be the "City that passes out", or the "City of empty condos"...whatever works. Enjoy.:-D

Vague-Ass

I used to drive through there every April and Oct. It's one of the best cities in the US for really good, mom & pop, cheap Mexican food.
Was hanging with a woman 10 years ago who had friends there. We spent a day and stayed overnight with them. Everything was Sam's Town. Nice place, but if you even mentioned another place you were under threat of death.

This isn't really a nickname but a motto:

"Las Vegas: Where hope is the normal form of delirium."

Mottos are good too...we can actually come up with a lot of those. And Sams Town is a real "locals" shitpot, bad side of town....more like, very desperate side of town.

Hello.

Vegas is "Fun Town!", and it really is.
Gambling and Alcohol are the order of the day, firearms are allowed.
But even a hint of weed and you are down the drain.
Sex in the city? no, that belongs outside in the county.

Las Vegas - foreclosure capital of the West!

The Mayor there told me the Strip is in the county, he has no control over the happenings.

Why are New Yorkers always so depressed?

....Free this! Free that!* (*some restrictions apply)
....Spend what you dont have for shit you dont need!
....Renters paradise!
....gangstas welcome!
....we stopped caring a long time ago
Lake meade....The Magical kingdom of dead bodies and 3-eyed fish
....The Carp Ghetto
....uneventful, dirty, hot, broken glass, dust and horseflies...but we have this big, impressive dam, see...
....see it before it completely dries up, now 80' below its original level.
....providing hard water for las Vegas' gaudiest and utterly useless strip attractions for 50 years.
....Hey, its a lake!
Henderson....of course it is...
....need any meth? We got meth!
....we have gangs too, and were not really Las Vegas.
....why not?
....more scorpions and wolf spiders than Vegas will ever have.

....If Vegas is Penn, Henderson is Teller.

Its the bad part of town, the truck stops are all on the edge of town these days. North Town, from the Stratosphere up to Nellis AFB, and from Sunrise Mtn to the east over to the 95, is home to most of the nastiest gangs, homeless, mosques, housing projects, etc. Further north is actually pretty nice. At least NLV knows what it wants to do.

Nice sig line, by the way.

The thing that amazed me the most about Vegas during by bi annual drive throughs was the brown smog that laid in the entire valley even when it was windy.

Vegas and El Paso are the only 2 cities I could see the glow in the sky from over 100 miles away.

I lived right in the middle of that cloud for years, right on the strip in the shadow of the casinos....i moved to the hillside about 4 years ago, its been better for DXing, thats for sure.
