Re: Wet 'N Wild - Las Vegas



I remember reading about the closure of Wet 'n' Wild a while back, something
about a casino resort is in the works for that spot there. But
historically, for some reason, that whole neighborhood has always had
trouble getting developed (or re-developed), so I wouldn't be surprise if
the land just sits there vacant. In fact, the neighboring El Rancho was
closed years ago and that piece of land stays undeveloped and unused to this
day.

Of all the years that I've been to Vegas, I have never visited the Wet 'n'
Wild. I wonder what I've missed.

Such sloppy research is par for the course for the Travel Channel,
alas, but it leads me to wonder WHY it failed?

One would think that it would be popular with both the locals and the
tourists (at least those with kids in tow).

This waterpark was between the Sarah and Riviera, right on LV Blvd.

I'm sure the problem was that the land they were on was way too valuable
for
anything but casinos and high-rise condos.

The problem with the Travel Channel is harder to diagnose. They just
don't seem
to care very much.
