Who are we? We are lovers of all things Las Vegas. We love the casinos, the restaurants, the shows and even resort fees. Well, OK, we love the casinos, restaurants and shows.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re here to give you the essential news and information you need to get the most from your next Las Vegas visit, all with a slightly skewed, occasionally intoxicated, perspective.<\/p>\n

\"We<\/a>
We were going to write a mission statement, but it sounded too much like having a job, so we made this instead.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We know people. We dig things up. We lampoon as needed. We\u2019re so inside, we\u2019re concave.<\/p>\n

One of the most baffling things about us is we\u2019re just one person, Scott Roeben, although we speak about ourselves in the first person plural. Drop us a line at scott@vitalvegas.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve been in Las Vegas for nearly 20 years, and once created words for one of the world\u2019s most recognized Web sites, LasVegas.com.<\/p>\n

From there, we went on to write the Pulse of Vegas blog for Caesars Entertainment, the world\u2019s largest gaming company. The Pulse of Vegas blog was named the Best Marketing Blog in the entire country by PR Daily<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We also worked in digital marketing at Fremont Street Experience in downtown Las Vegas for six years. Fremont Street Experience won first prize for \u201cBest Use of Social Media\u201d in the Las Vegas Interactive Marketing Association Awards<\/a>. Our efforts also garnered the\u00a0\u201cGroundbreaker Award\u201d\u200b for interactive marketing from the Las Vegas Metro Chamber of Commerce<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Given our love of Las Vegas, it was just a matter of time before we started a site devoted to the entire destination.<\/p>\n

Among the many accolades we are far too modest to mention, Vital Vegas was named the Best Business Blog<\/a> by the Las Vegas Interactive Marketers Association.<\/p>\n

Our network of sources in Las Vegas is unparalleled, which means you get news and industry chatter others don\u2019t (or won\u2019t) share, and even if they do, it\u2019s months or even years later. Yawn. Waiting for news releases just doesn\u2019t cut it anymore.<\/p>\n

In Nov. 2021, we officially partnered<\/a> with Casino.org, the premier online news source for all things casinos and gaming. Casino.org is not only an amazing source for news and information about casinos and gambling, they let us do whatever we want, making it possibly the best partnership in the history of ever. Working with Casino.org allows us to maintain complete independence from any Las Vegas casino or other entity. That means we get to say what we want, the way we want, and you know you\u2019re getting the straight scoop and unvarnished truth.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the thing about Vital Vegas, though. What\u2019s vital is hearing from you, and creating a place where the community of people who love Las Vegas can chat each other up, answer questions and share tips.<\/p>\n

So, please comment. Share our posts if you enjoy them. If you don\u2019t, keep it to yourself. We\u2019re here mainly for the adulation and groupies.<\/p>\n

You\u2019d be wise to follow us on Twitter<\/a>, where more than 180,000 followers get their Vegas news, opinions, wild speculation and copious amounts of WTF. Our Twitter account (what the kids sometimes refer to as \u201cX\u201d), was named the \u201cBest Vegas Twitter Feed\u201d by Desert Companion magazine.\u00a0Today\u2019s Tweet could win you a bar bet someday.<\/p>\n

Thanks for visiting, and we hope you\u2019ll return.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
