The principal characters journey to Las Vegas. At least one has a gambling problem and will end up dead broke or winning a ton of money (bonus points if an urgent need for cash is why they go to Vegas). Most likely, one or all end up in jail and/or married. It's possible that someone might host their friend's Stag Party here. Don't be surprised if there's a Drunken Montage or Binge Montage. Don't be surprised either to see Wayne Newton (or an thinly-veiled Expy of him), the former teen pop star of the 1950s who popularized the notion of musicians relocating to Vegas in order to find steady work within the city's many high-profile night spots, and continued to perform off-and-on in the city well into the new millennium. If children are involved, expect some harsh Mood Whiplash when they confront adult themes for the first time, and hilarity may or may not ensue, although this story element has become obscure past the year 2000. In reality, Las Vegas has actually become much more open to people who do not gamble and / or who have kids, and they even have a support group people can call if they have a gambling problem! This should be considered a separate genre from shows which are routinely set in Vegas, e.g. CSI. In other words, if the show is SET in Las Vegas, it does not belong here. If the cast decide to go visit Vegas and hit up casinos and the line "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" is mentioned, it belongs here. Viva Las Vegas consists entirely of casino interiors (with rattling-change sound effects, although modern slots dispense credit slips), the Strip, high-roller nightlife in clubs, stage shows, and possibly Fremont Street. And, of course, every other person you'll meet is an Elvis impersonator who doubles as a clergyman or justice of the peace for quickie, no-questions-asked marriages. These many not be too far away from reality... Television Geography is common when using Vegas, as are Brand X casinos, unless it's total Product Placement for a real casino or a company's family of casinos (most of the Strip is presently owned by two companies, although several other companies have stakes in either Strip or near-Strip properties). The "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" sign is the city's prime candidate for the Eiffel Tower Effect, given that its image is in the public domain while the likeness of the hotels themselves are privately held. Still, some movies will inflict Monumental Damage on the resorts themselves. Ironically, very little popularly associated with Las Vegas is actually located in the City of Las Vegas, not the Strip, not the gigantic casino resorts, and not even the "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" sign. They are actually located in the unincorporated towns of Paradise and Winchester; this was done intentionally to dodge paying municipal taxes. On the other hand, the Stratosphere tower, which is the tallest building west of the Mississippi River and which can be seen from practically anywhere in the city (and which shows up on innumerable souvenirs of LV), and the Downtown district, which contains the Fremont Street Experience and most of the casinos seen in older features and series about Vegas, are firmly within Las Vegas city limits. However, there are two things worth considering about these loopholes: First, the city of Las Vegas proper is the seat of Clark County (whose local government would be in charge of collecting taxes on the casinos), and second, the city of Las Vegas proper, Paradise, Winchester, and other surrounding suburbs and unincorporated communities collectively form the Las Vegas Valley, making the name of this trope technically accurate. Another irony of this trope is that, while both in fiction and in Real Life, the Strip is a major attraction for tourists, most locals in the Las Vegas area actually avoid going to the Strip on their time off. The reason for this is pretty simple: The fact that the Strip is such a major source of the local economy (and, therefore, employment), they would feel less inclined to spend their free time at the Strip. Contrary to popular belief, prostitution is illegal in Las Vegas, Nevada. By state law, any prostitution outside of a brothel is illegal, and a brothel must possess a state-issued license to operate legally. Every county is allowed a "local option" on whether to allow operations of brothels. However, the law immediately prohibits any county having a population over 400,000 from issuing brothel licenses, which excludes Clark (encompassing Vegas) and Washoe (encompassing Reno) counties. The end result of this is that in Nevada's largest cities, prostitution is illegal by default. From Vegas, one has to drive sixty miles west to Pahrump to find the nearest legal brothel. Of course, this doesn't prevent illegal prostitution from being rampant (much as it is in most other large cities). A destination of a Vacation Episode, Road Trip Plot, and Vacation, Dear Boy. Compare It Came from Beverly Hills, The Casino, Minigame Zone, Casino Park, and The Show Goes Hollywood. Las Vegas' European equivalent is the Freestate Amsterdam. See also Casino Episode, which need not be centered around a specific Real Life casino. Related tropes include Sinister Southwest or Weird West, which include using the American Southwest (where Las Vegas is located) as a setting for Horror or supernatural stories. |

The Pretender: In "Curious Jarod," Jarod gets a job at a Vegas casino to discover who killed a showgirl and bring that person to justice. In "Cold Dick," which was actually filmed in Las Vegas, Miss Parker and Broots pose as newlyweds while on a stakeout in a honeymoon suite in Vegas. Hilarity ensues, then Wayne Newton appears in the final scene. |

When Go isn't about a drug-dealing checkout clerk going to Vegas, it's about what his drug-dealing checkout clerk friends decide do while he's gone to Vegas. Gambling isn't highly featured for use of this trope (casino gambling, that is; the characters gamble in plenty of other ways,) and a fair bit of off-Strip Vegas is shown. | |

In the Angel episode "The House Always Wins", Angel takes the gang to Vegas, where Lorne is doing a very Wayne-Newtonish show. Against his will. It's learned that Angel attended Elvis' Vegas wedding and that only one member of the Blue Man Group is human. Ironically, the episode did not feature Charisma Carpenter - who was actually born in Las Vegas. | |

Domino ultimately concludes the main character's How We Got Here story through the desert with a gunfight in the Stratosphere, that ends up with a helicopter attacking the tower (eventually crashing into the resort below) and one of the protagonist's friends sacrificing himself to blow up the entire observation pod, causing Domino to rapidly fall down the shaft in an Elevator Failure. The real tower was used instead of a generic knockoff, though the Monumental Damage was of course CGI and an accurate recreation of the restaurant level. Didn't stop them from calling it Based on a True Story, though. | |

Parodied in Arrested Development, where Reno, Nevada — essentially the poor man's Las Vegas — is treated this way. Reno calls itself "the biggest little city in the world"; on the show, it has an equivalent slogan to "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" in "Make the biggest little mistake of your life in Reno" (also a variation on the show's Catchphrase "I've made a huge mistake"). | |

Dead Rising 2 takes place in a Vegas analogue by the name of Fortune City. The casinos, giant hotels, and malls are all accounted for; in fact, the only easily noticeable difference between Las Vegas and Fortune is the fact that Fortune has been overrun by zombies. The prequel establishes that Fortune City was a replacement for Vegas, the real thing having been overrun by the dead and firebombed into oblivion. The Big Bad confesses to starting that outbreak in the main game. | |

Big Mutha Truckers takes place in Hick County, but it features a few cities that are not indicative of such a place it resides in. One of them is Greenback, which is very Vegas-like, complete with casinos, nightclubs and the bright neon signs to go with it. | |

The Big Bang Theory: Leonard, Raj, and Howard visit Las Vegas in one episode, partly to get Howard's mind off a recent breakup. Leonard and Raj do wind up hiring a prostitute (willing to roleplay a "Jewish girlfriend") for Howard... but in a nod to reality, she only agrees after confirming that they aren't police. In another episode, Bernadette and Amy invite Penny to Las Vegas for a girls' weekend. However, Penny, normally the resident Hard-Drinking Party Girl, is more preoccupied with completing a sales report than taking part in Amy and Bernadette's drunken escapades, which includes dancing with male strippers. The following morning, while Amy and Bernadette nurse severe hangovers, Penny decides to go down to the pool by herself. |

Army of the Dead is a Zombie Apocalypse movie set in Vegas, complete with a zombified bachelorette party and Elvis Impersonator, rabid zombified topless showgirls, a Liberace impersonator, and landmarks like the replica Eiffel Tower getting blown up. The opening credits shows the typical Vegas life being wrecked by the zombie outbreak (set to a reprise of the song "Viva Las Vegas!" by Richard Cheese and Allison Crowe) while the main plot revolves around a heist as the protagonists are sent into the city's walled-off ruins to empty a casino's vault. | |

On the way, Rosette gets in trouble because she can't resist gambling on slot machines.

Zatanna is there performing her world-famous stage act, and her cousin Zachary is trying to break into the big time himself with his own show.

Safe Havens The main cast travels to Vegas at pivotal moments in their careers: aspiring singer Bambi needs her Vegas show to do well if she doesn't want to get dropped by her label (and her agent Jenny needs it to go well as well or she'll be forced to close her talent agency), Remora and Thomas need to find jobs to support their newborn (especially complicated for Remora since she's temporarily Mode Locked in her 'mermaid classic' form), and Don and Dave are competing in the NBA Summer League to try to get contracts for the regular season. Gambling in the casinos only comes up in Thomas's story arc where he accidentally lost Remora's fish tank, but gambling as a metaphor (for everyone's futures) is played up, compared to Samantha and Luis's safer decisions to go back to school for a doctorate and masters respectively. Bambi's career is resurrected after five encores convince the label to keep her, Thomas's trapezing skills get him hired by Cirque du Soleil, which allows Remora to be a stay at home mom, Don gets a contract with the Havens Fastracks (formerly the Seattle Supersonics), and while Dave failed to do the same, an Italian basketball team offered him one instead. Oh, and Jenny and Luis eloped, but the others don't find that out until Jenny starts having Morning Sickness a few months later. Years later, Samantha and Dave return so Dave can try out for Team USA to compete in the 2016 Olympics, where Samantha is banned from casinos because the dodos snuck in to gamble, they got busted counting cards, and the casinos believed them to be animatronics Samantha built. Dave makes it into Team USA, and would go on to help them to an Olympic gold medal. |

In 1981's Superman #365, Superboy, after he left Smallville, kept which city he moved to a secret for awhile to avoid anyone suspecting Clark Kent also moving there at the same time (for college). This resulted in the entire country abuzz about which city Superboy would pick as his new home. A TV news story showed gamblers in Las Vegas making bets on which city the Boy of Steel would call his new home; besides the obvious choice (Metropolis), other cities bet on included: Gotham City, New York, Washington, D.C., Boston, Miami, Los Angeles, Detroit, New Orleans, and Chicago. Ironically, Las Vegas itself wasn't one of the cities being bet on. | |

Family Guy: The episode "When You Wish Upon a Weinstein" climaxes when Peter takes Chris to Vegas for a quickie conversion to Judaism. Lois follows suit in a parody of The Graduate. "Roads to Vegas" has Brian and Stewie heading to Las Vegas via the latter's teleporter. Problem is, the teleporter malfunctions and creates duplicates of the two — one pair makes it to Vegas, the other doesn't, and neither set is aware of the other's existence. The latter pair takes a plane to Vegas instead and goes through the miserable Vegas experience (they get stuck at a fleapit hotel, lose their money at the gaming tables, etc.) while the first pair lives high on the hog. Eventually their paths unknowingly cross, and the status quo is restored when one Stewie is murdered by a loan shark and one Brian kills himself. |

Friends had the very well-known two-part Vegas episode where the friends travel to Nevada to visit Joey (who they think is filming a movie there) and also to celebrate Monica and Chandler's one-year anniversary. There, Joey meets a man with identical hands to him and tries to persuade him to go into business with him; Phoebe is stalked by an elderly "lurker"; Monica turns out to be an excellent gambler; Ross and Rachel get drunk, draw on each other's faces, and accidentally get married; and Chandler nearly gets married to Monica, but the two decide against it when they see Ross and Rachel stumbling drunk out of the chapel. | |
