| - This was such a great experience! Now I'm a huge fan of Las Vegas history, and also how the Mob was such a HUGE part of that history. I'm also fascinated by Mob history as well. I've done a lot of reading and research the past few years, so this was totally up my alley!
For locals the price is a mere $10 for the entire day, so if you want to leave, walk to Fremont and come back, you could certainly do that. There is so much to read about, a ton of interactive pieces, you could really spend hours in here depending on how much you want to read and take in. We were here about 2 1/2 hours today and I glossed over a few things quicker than others! At that point, I was just on overload! I was talking to the gift shop clerk(very sweet lady btw) and she had told me that the 'record' for someone being in the museum was 7 hours! Damn! Get your ten bucks worth buddy! If you have the time and patience there is enough here to do it!
As others have stated, they do have some bloody pics of corpses, so it is not for the squeamish. This really shouldnt be a suprise though. It's the frickin Mob. They're not known for settling differences with pillow fights.
There is so much you can learn here and if you enjoy Las Vegas or Mob history, it's a must see. If you enjoy both, such as myself, than get your butt down here, pronto! You're gonna love it!
5 stars, toughguy!
