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.
"The undisputed heavyweight champ of location taglines, “What happens here stays here” has its foundation in, appropriately enough, money. In 1999, looking to hang on to its multimillion dollar account, the team at communications agency R&R Partners moved to come up with fresh campaign materials and a new motto for the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Bureau (LVCVB)."

To briefly stop this argument I am going to post another Dane Cook quote.
After having a one night stand, girls, you'll call up your friends and tell them about it! Guys, we will come over to our friends' HOUSE! We will be like, "Jason! Jason! I'm sorry to wake you up, man. Remember that girl I left with earlier? Yeah! SMELL MY EYES! SMELL MY EYES! I'LL TELL YOU THE WHOLE STORY!
That is all.
Originally posted by VegasWhat 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.
Oh my god, is this a joke?Please, read it properly.
Do not look at it, see it.
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.

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 [b]YOUR
self.T'sall for now.

Hello and welcome, Vegas. 😊
Don't mind me, it's my job to excuse every newbie of being a sock. With that said...
SOCK!
And enjoy your stay. 😄

It's kinda like calling Brazilian Nuts, Brazilian Nuts when you're in Brazil. People will think you're from out of town so they'll take advantage of you in every way possible. ermm
