information
:
Circus Circus Las Vegas
is a
hotel
and
casino
located on the
Las Vegas Strip
in
Winchester
,
Nevada
. It is owned and operated by
Phil Ruffin
. Circus Circus features
circus
acts and
carnival games
at the Carnival Midway. It has 123,928 square feet (11,513.3 m
2
) of casino space.
Circus Circus is the largest permanent
big top
in the world. The Lucky The Clown marquee at the entrance was provided by
Young Electric Sign Company
and was constructed in 1976.
Previous owners of Circus Circus Las Vegas were
Jay Sarno
and
Stanley Mallin
(1968–1974),
Mandalay Resort Group
(formerly known as Circus Circus Enterprises) (1974–2005), and
MGM Resorts International
(formerly known as MGM Mirage) (2005-2019). Circus Circus was opened on October 18, 1968, by
Jay Sarno
and
Stanley Mallin
. Architects Rissman and Rissman Associates designed a giant circus tent-shaped main structure, which was built by R.C. Johnson Construction of Las Vegas. Circus Circus was the first family-oriented casino in Las Vegas. Gambling was located on the first floor, while the second floor contained games for children. At its opening, the million facility only included a casino. The lack of a hotel resulted in financial problems, as the casino was not able to attract high rollers. Sarno obtained a million loan from the
Teamsters
Pension Fund to construct a hotel. As part of the arrangement, the
Chicago Outfit
's enforcer,
Anthony Spilotro
(under the name of Tony Stuart), was granted a gift shop concession in the hotel. In addition to a government investigation into the organized-crime connections, Sarno and Mallin were also being investigated for tax code violations. The casino's financial problems also continued and Sarno, along with his partner Stanley Mallin, decided to sell out.
