  • Nice little gem of an exhibit/interactive experience tucked away in the Tropicana. I always like to get a little history on each trip & this was the first time I'd heard of this exhibit. It's advertised as an interactive experience and it is, to some extent. It's a walk-through exhibit of the history of the mob involvement in Vegas. They have a TON of artifacts - original cars, personal effects, photos, etc. Whoever was in charge of rounding out the collection did a great job. The beginning of the tour is interactive - you are walked through room by room by either an onscreen guide (one of several Hollywood movie 'mobsters' who recorded bits for this attraction) or a live action actor (mob guys, old school police, detectives) as you attempt to get 'made' within the family ... or wind up getting whacked for your mistakes. The first rule is - you don't know nothin' 'bout nothin', capiche? After the intro to the mob life, you wind up in an atrium with several off shoot rooms about different topics - Meyer Lansky, Bugsy Siegel, the making of the Godfather movie, demolition of famous mob-connected hotels & casinos, etc. If you're a history or mob nut, you'll want to read everything & look at all of the artifacts. If not - you'll probably be bored and end up sitting on the couch in the atrium waiting for your nerdy friends to finish because this part isn't really interactive. It's mostly just a museum. After this, the "join the Family" storyline picks back up with actors and you wind up talking to the Boss at the end... where you find out if you've been made...or whacked. We noticed several technical glitches that need to be worked out. Sometimes your on-screen guide doesn't appear as you enter the room or the attendants let you into the next room before the previous occupants have left. Also, the sound was out of sync with the video during the beginning of the Godfather documentary & the a/c was a little weak in the atrium.
