Can You Guess Where We Are?

 Lately, I've been watching a lot of You Tubers playing slots at Las Vegas casinos. They normally mention where they are playing at, but sometimes I don't catch it so I'll look for clues to figure it out. This includes looking at the surrounding areas, light fixtures and carpet; and sometimes I'll get it.

So on this last trip, I made it a point to look at the carpets and I thought, "Hmmmm . . . I wonder if people can guess the casino based on the carpet alone?" Like, you know, how the Portland airport and Kahala Mall have very distinct and recognizable carpets?

Can you guess the casinos based on the photos I took? I also left some clues as well. Answers are at the end of this post. Have fun!

Casino 1: Located in Downtown Las Vegas, this casino is "technically" on Fremont Street, but not really. The carpet looked really bright and rich; I believe all the rooms were recently renovated, so maybe they updated the carpet as well?


Casino 2: "Aloha Spoken Here" is at this casino.


Casino 3: No clues are needed to guess this casino!



Casino 4: They have a touristy ride here, which I really enjoyed.


Casino 5: The decor of this Downtown casino has a very vintage vibe and is known for a historic artifact installed in the men's bathroom.


Casino 6: This casino has a Southeast Asian inspired decor.


Casino 7: This carpet is newly installed in a new section of this casino located in Downtown. The picture below is the carpet in other areas.



Casino 8: Maybe I should have picked a different section of the casino to take a picture? I think the carpet needs to be replaced at this casino with a replica attraction outside.

Casino 9: As you can tell, this carpet is brand spanking new, and it is literally the name of this casino.


Casino 10: This casino was featured in "Back to the Future" under a different name.


Casino 11: Bright, whimsical and pretty, I have always loved this carpet at this casino located toward the North end of the Strip.



Casino 12: A Strip-like casino located in Downtown. Vents (left side of the picture) are located throughout the casino floor, blowing air. Very surprising the first time I felt it. LOL.


Casino 13: The next couple of pictures are taken in different areas of this property. One is in the actual casino; the other is in the corridor that houses high-end retail shops. This property also boasts two must-see attractions every time we visit.



Casino 14: This Downtown property has a steakhouse that gives a rose to every female who dines there.


Casino 15: The next two pictures are from a property located on the South end of the Strip; its main tower boasts unusual architecture. 



Casino 16: Previously, you could "walk the yellow brick road" at this casino.



So how did you do? Here are the answers:

Casino 1: El Cortez
Casino 2: California
Casino 3: Caesar's Palace
Casino 4: Venetian
Casino 5: Main Street Station
Casino 6: Mandalay Bay
Casino 7: Fremont
Casino 8: Paris
Casino 9: Horseshoe (formerly Bally's)
Casino 10: Plaza
Casino 11: Wynn
Casino 12: Circa
Casino 13: Bellagio
Casino 14: 4 Queens
Casino 15: Luxor
Casino 16: MGM
