Tupac

Hey, did you know Tupac was shot and killed right by our hotel?

It happened right on the corner of Flamingo and Koval, which is like three blocks from where we are staying at Flamingo and Paradise.

They were stopped at a red light at that intersection, according to Wikipedia, at 11:10, when Tupac started yelling at some girls to come meet him at a club. At 11:15, he was gunned down at that same intersection. Yes, they were at the red light for five minutes. The red lights are seriously that long out here.

It was front of the Maxim Hotel, which doesn't exist anymore. This is what the intersection looks like:

So when you come to visit, let's drink some Colt 45 at that corner and raise a toast. Then perhaps we can go see Tupac in concert.
