We loved it too Our friends renewed their vows there The transporter thing was amazing
my husband and son rode on it I missed out I guess.
Might have been good, but with a shelf life. Spent 10 years in Vegas, on the strip, as a professional. Everything one learns about Vegas and gambling is that to allure gamblers with new properties/casino’s you must glamorize it. Its a draw if its glamorized a la’ Steve Wynn and his properties.
Gambling is never glamorized by association with science fiction themes. By making a life sized Star Trek thingy is violating the norm. The Las Vegas Hilton had the ‘Star Trek Experience’ for 10 years and closed because of declining attendance. Similarly, I view the downtown life sized Star Trek ship as having a limited shelf life and mostly male interest, which would not guarantee that a family would be drawn year after year to downtown versus on the strip, especially if the wife had any say.
