From todays Las Vegas Review Journal……
It’s not the Hollywood Walk of Fame, but Jimmy Buffett swung by the Flamingo recently and signed his name on the bar at Margaritaville. Construction is ahead of schedule at the hotel’s new signature restaurant, which is set to open in December. The restaurant is a joint venture between Buffett and Park Place Entertainment Corp., owner of the Flamingo. Buffett’s signature has been sealed under shellac for posterity.
