My visit became official when I went to the Vegas sign this past visit to Las Vegas. Ok it might not be a big deal but I was dying to see this sign while visiting Vegas this time. Being a history major, I always gravitate towards monuments or landmarks of historical value. Well this is one of them in Vegas for sure. It was built in 1959. And has been in numerous movie scenes and tv shows as well. I always thought it was going to be even bigger in real life but being 25 feet tall or so it was good.
This place doesn't disappoint if you stop for less than an hour etc. Its basically in the middle of the street kind of a deal with tourists always trying to take selfies with this sign. If your driving they have a parking lot right beside it so it's convenient.
Ok pout selfie kings and queens, it is your time to shine and take as many photos to fill your Instagram / snapchat etc with the Vegas Sign. Best time to come to avoid line is morning. It's FREE to see the sign, that's one of the best parts. In expensive Vegas, a free treat to see something is always special. Ok I'm officially a ex tourist of Vegas now that I have a selfie with this sign.~
