Oscar and Me
The most famous and effective marketing strategy Las Vegas has going for itself is it’s Mayor. That would be the one and only Oscar B Goodman, former Mob attorney.
This week he awarded one of the members of our Guild the title of Tour Guide of the Decade. And while there, I had this moment with the happiest mayor in all the world.
Sorry, I am best in the moment with a group around me. Staged pictures just don’t do it for me. That and I am missing my hat.
The Mayor’s office is a shrine to all things Oscar. You can not believe all the things in it that are dedicated to him. Although the strip is not part of the city, he considers it his duty to market Las Vegas as a whole and just about everybody accepts that.
