Danny Gans Dies

According to CNN the famous Las Vegas "Entertainer of the Year" Danny Gans, died today at 52. The cause of death has not yet been revealed. Gans’ outrageously successful Vegas career began in 1996, when he landed a three-month gig at the Stratosphere Hotel.

In the intervening years, the Broadway vet had shows at the Mirage Hotel and the Encore Theater at Steve Wynn’s Wynn Las Vegas Hotel. He has sold more tickets on the Strip than the Rat Pack or Elvis Presley, and was voted Las Vegas "Entertainer of the Year" for 11 consecutive years. He leaves behind his wife of 25 years and three children.

Rest in Peace Danny.  Condolences to his family.
