Visitors by the thousands streamed into the newest casino-resort on the Las Vegas strip yesterday, an influx that casino officials hope will help yank Sin City from its two-year economic funk.
Fireworks and fanfare inaugurated the official launch of the Aria Resort & Casino, the 4,000-room, 61-story centerpiece of the $8.5 billion CityCenter complex. Crowds began swarming through the doors around midnight, welcomed with cheers and dozens of photographers snapping pictures.
Models stood in the aisles, casino executives greeted guests, and hundreds got a preview of an Elvis-themed Cirque du Soleil show to debut in February.
