The commercials are equal opportunity showing both women and men in relationships acting inappropriately. Or at least alluding to it. Whatever. Either way, its a vast improvement over the family-funland concept they had before. Forget that.

Except for that I'm not sure it has worked. Awareness is up, but it probably drove away as much business as it kept. As a semi-frequent Vegas patron, I can tell you hard it is to make the sell to the wife. Yeah, honey, I'm going to go the land of sin for a few days with some ATM cards and have fun with the guys. Yeah, we're going to drink a lot, strippers might be involved, I might need to take out a second mortgage after I bust the 16 vs a 9, why do you ask? So it's tough to begin with. Now think about the new campaign. It is essentially saying, "Vegas. We're everything you dream about. We are every immoral deed you ever dreamed of doing. You have a zero percent chance of going after your wife sees this. Zero. No really. Don't even bother asking if she's seen this, she knows the score."

They had a very successful campaign too. The whole "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas" thing on the commercials now. You forgot Las Vegas. They had a very successful campaign too.
