Me in front of the popular Vegas sign... I had to have the cab driver stop for me to log this "virtual geocache"...
My understanding is that the lady who came up with this sign didn't copyright it and thus it is on every conceivable trinket, t-shirt and airport souvenir you can think of...
Also, the sign, like most of the Vegas Strip, is actually in the town of Paradise, and not Las Vegas.. even though everyone refers to the whole area as Vegas, it actually isn't...
Thus ends your Vegas trivia for the day...

That's got to be one of multiple signs that look like that around Vegas. The area around it just isn't as vibrant (except for the subject person) and green. That looks like one huge concrete median that should be grass instead.

@Steven: No, that's the Original Sign.... it's just way south of the Strip is all...
