Today we talk about the history of the Frontier casino in Las Vegas. It all started in 1942, with the Last Frontier hotel which was the 2nd hotel/casino located on the Las Vegas Strip. Opened by R.E. Griffith and his nephew, William J. Moore next door to the El Rancho Vegas. It had a very western theme which attracted many that visited Las Vegas. Moving into the 50s, the name would change to the New Frontier and Elvis would have his first ever Vegas performance there. Liberace and Judy Garland also would be performers at the Frontier properties. Then, Howard Hughes took over in the 60s and changed the name to just the Frontier where things would get larger and move more towards a modern look. Phil Ruffin would take over into the late 90s and then the casino would be imploded in 2007 after closing a few months before. Incredible thing to have stayed on the strip in the same location from the 40s up until 2007 and moving with changing times! Hope you enjoy!
