Humbug.

A DEI production.

💖

That's the white gentrified pronunciation of it but it's pretty disrespectful to the culture from where the name is derived. Us Texans know how it's REALLY pronounced. The name means "Snow capped" and it's not AN ENGLISH FUCKING WORD.

its nevada dumbass

59:48 is that the first ever low rider?! 😂 what a beautiful history vegas has. God bless those people who lived here before air conditioning!

I thought the first was alcapone..that did horrible things for America including the dry era..like to stop selling alcohol..but according to facts he would do it one way or another Thanks for sharing this

I love this series & can’t wait for the next installment! I am fascinated by our city’s history, as checkered as it may be

14:01 That person, third from the left in the first row is wearing shorts! This is disrespectful. People like this should not be allowed to the ceremony.

Sorry doucheballs, it's Nev-oh-dah deal with it.

NER-VARDER

Im from California and i naturally say it the correct way

In 1968 The Desert Inn, Sands,. Frontier, Silver Slipper Castaways, and developed Landmark Hotel were bought to set an unheard precedent in casino ownerships by The Hughes Corporation In 1969 The International Las Vegas Hilton - Westgate became the first mega resort of its time by M.G.M Corporation In 1989 The Mirage Hotel Casino became a future image of Las Vegas Blvd by Golden Nugget Incorporated Thank you Howard R. Hughes Kirk Kerkorian Steve Wynn Your efforts are legendary

It is so nice to see a local station in America producing real content!

Nowadays, instead of Whiskey , there are meth labs all over the country.

yall prolly say "beerhea taacos" too...

I want to do this so badly...

Love it!

NEE-viduh

This has to be Las Vegas because tourist. I’m Judy happy pate saying it right

I always view Las Vegas as the brother to Los Angeles

Take the correct pronunciation, because it's from the Spanish.. then go the OTHER way because they are people dumb enough to live there.

is that an O.K. Gum vendor @ 1:07:53?

My mom graduated from Las Vegas High in 1956 and her father was the building inspector for Clark County and they left town because he wouldn’t take bribed from the Mob.

Adam Nevada How do you pronounce Nevada in the US? Say "Neh-VA-duh". That is the correct way to pronounce the state name. Put emphasis on the second syllable. Pronounce it so that the middle part rhymes with the “ad” sound in the words "sad" or "mad." Compare "Nevada" and "Nebraska." The corresponding vowels in the two names are pronounced the same.

So-called "progressives" ruined everything back then just like they're trying to ruin everything nowadays. 😒

@ 58:35 The best 125M this country ever spent.

Thank you

Viva Las Vegas . . . 🎀

English is crazy just call it in spanish

Wow, Vance was really brave. I'm glad the city acknowledged his selflessness. Way to go!

Thank you for posting this great documentary!!!😀👍

Good 👍 islasvigs

I had to chuckle every time I heard about the "tiny" city in the desert. LOL

Need a donut in the roof and a Quick-n-Split next door

Crazy they did Philippines before Vegas . I’m Filipino that’s crazy

MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! #Trump2024

You couldn't pay me aa million dollars to spend a summer in Vegas without air conditioning. No way!

'The nineteen chwanties'

That’s at container park in Las Vegas

First lowrider spotted 59:45

First track shootings in 1926... Something tells me 2026 ShotShow is going to be huge.

Kudos for a very well done series with great production value and historical content 👍

WHY Amtrak does NOT have train service to Las Vegas is beyond me. You can take an Amtrak BUS there...but no rail service. One would think, because of all the rail competition to service Las Vegas, even as early as the turn of the century, SOMEONE would be providing service there.

What an enjoyable video. Who would guess?....Who would believe?....Las Vegas could become the "wonderland" it has become today? I went there FIRST in 1962. By that time, only a few years after the events in this video, it was already "Magic"!

Hey was that Jim Ferguson that was just discovered stuffed in a barrel at Lake Mead?

Warren Harding was pres. up tp oct. of 1923 not Calvin Cooledge/100 years later there still hating the AMERICA FIRST president.
