This is the famous Bob Stupak advertisement for Vegas World. Has anyone stayed at Las Vegas World? The Stratosphere roars. What I missed and what you will no longer see is the old Vegas World. The next time I go to Las Vegas, the Stratosphere will still be there. I will quote the most famous story about the Las Vegas Strip. Bob redefined the Las Vegas Strip in his advertisements, and the city of Las Vegas sued him. In the end, he won the right to say that his hotel was on the Strip in court.
