I've already made my introduction, so I figured I'd jump right into the basket. Hi, I'm Vegas. You can call me... Vegas. I like to play Cards; Particularly Poker and to be even more specific, I like to play Texas Hold 'em... But, Omaha or Seven Card Stud will do fine as well. This may sound bluntly arrogant, but I consider myself to be a true natural at any card game. I have a "thing" with cards... A fascination.

I'd like to get to know some of you. I'm willing to elaborate further about myself if you donate some information about YOURself.

T'sall for now.

Anyway, welcome to KMC, Vegas. I think I missed that part out of my initial hello ermm

Ah, much appreciated. Now to go obtain a signature. I am shoddy at creating them myself. Hah.

Actually it's:

What happens here, stays here.

I should know...I live in Las Vegas.

The commercials shown to the world say

Vegas

What happens here, stays here.

Therefore it's the most widely used one.

Therefore it's the most widely used one. Yes, but you wouldn't say "What happens here, stays here" if you were in, say, Indiana. Because Indiana is not Vegas.

This is true, but, who would live in Indiana?

Either way "What happens in here, stays in here." is NOT the saying in any form because it's improper when speaking about a city.

I hope that isn't your evidence, because the one I see the most is:

"What happens in Las Vegas, stays in Las Vegas."

"What happens here, stays here." is a widely used term that applies to all-in-all situations.

"What happens in Las Vegas, Stays in Las Vegas." Is a more elaborate, precise term to signify the quote, honestly.

The commercials commissioned by the board of tourism of Las Vegas have one tag line, and that is "What happens here, stays here."

"What happens in Las Vegas, Stays in Las Vegas." Is a more elaborate, precise term to signify the quote, honestly. It's true that a lot of people use the phrase for places other than Las Vegas, but Las Vegas is the originator of the phrase, so they (rightly) feel that they don't have to specify where they mean when they say it

Oh, I guess because it was featured in a commercial, it's logically the most widely used quote.

Yeah, you got me there.

"What happens here, stays here." is a common saying that refers to everything and anything. An example would be a situation where you've just killed someone with your friend . . . You would use that specific line.

"What happens in Las Vegas, stay in Las Vegas." nips it in the bud. It is directly and primarily referring to Las Vegas itself and it is the most widely utilized quote.

That and "Whatever happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas."

Annnnnnnnnnd scene....*takes a bow*

That proves it's the most widely used quote? Who fails?

In a subliminally, indirect way; You just proved my point.

The city itself uses that line because it represents ITSELF. The line is widely used by tourists and travelers and when they're prompted to share a tale, they say "What happens in Las Vegas, stays in Las Vegas." or "Whatever happens in Las Vegas, stays in Las Vegas."

The line "What happens here, stays here." is used everywhere by everyone and did not originate from Las Vegas because it can be applied to multiple situations, whereas utilizing "Las Vegas" within the quote thins the elaboration.

So you say that because other people use it, Vegas wasn't the origin of the phrase? What faulty logic

Ken and I are not saying that saying "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas" is incorrect. But the city of Las Vegas uses the phrase "What happens here, stays here" because hey! It is Vegas.That wasn't your point.

How long has english been around?

How long do you think people have been saying "What happens here, stays here."

And how long has Las Vegas existed?

You good at math?

The article was paraphrasing. It happens every so often.

Now....

Cool, I posted one of those commercials branded by the government as well.

The statement where you said "What happens here, Stays here" is the official tagline used by Las Vegas has become void six ways from sunday, pal.

Damn, still too new to post links.

And I had a good one lined up.

If the government created a commercial saying "What happens here, stays here" and that SAME GOVERNMENT creates another commerical saying "What happens in Las Vegas, stays in Las Vegas." . . .


It means that yours is not official, but both could possibly lean towards being official, even though what you said still doesn't classify as proof to that being the official tagline used. It's parallel with mine as well.

See the other one? Officially hosted by the government with the other tagline?

Face it, we could go all day.

None are official. I suggest we leave it at that.


Unless you wish to say that "What happens here, stays here" is the confirmed and official quote used for all of Las Vegas because it was seen in a commercial or few.


Because I could say that the line I have a bias to was featured in many commercials and is used on many blogs, the official Las Vegas show, on wikipedia, generates more search options having relevancy with Vegas itself . . .


But, no matter. This could perpetuate all day and honestly, it's petty.

Stalemate?

Originally posted by Vegas

Oh my lord . . . Please, read it throughoughly.

I did. Not arrogance, and once again, your ignorance.

You said that was the quote officially used by the government. There is a commercial shown by THE GOVERNMENT using THE LINE I FAVOR AND THINK IS OFFICIAL.

That leaves us in a stalemate. It's that simple.

Originally posted by Vegas

Please, read it properly.

Do not look at it, see it. What you highlighted was "location taglines" and "new motto." I fail to see how this advances your point at all. I can only assume you mean to say that since it is a "new" motto, it completely disassembles my point. I beg to differ. My point has always been that the official motto of Las Vegas is "What happens here, stays here" as opposed to "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas." The quote I posted backs that up.

I assume that you are attacking my claim that Las Vegas originated the phrase in popular culture. My point is still valid. It was only recently, however that it was adopted as an official slogan for the city.

Still, I maintain that this is completely pointless, as the two slogans are interchangeable.

Ugh Vegas, Vegas, Vegas. As far as I' m concerned, Vegas can be hit in the pachanga.
