I should have written about this earlier. I noticed it, asked others about it and then forgot. But John Katsilometes of the Las Vegas Sun didn't forget and gets credit for figuring out what happened to the best known 7-Eleven in Las Vegas: the one on the corner of Las Vegas Boulevard right across from the Fremont Street Experience.

I never shopped there. I don't even know anyone who did. But everyone knew about that 7-Eleven. You see, this particular 7-Eleven had a huge neon sign that was impossible to miss: a perfect complement to Las Vegas. Katsilometes reports the store closed New Year's Eve on account of rent increases. But he offers no information on what happened to the neon 7-Eleven sign, which is not only no longer glowing there but totally gone from the location. I hope there are plans to bring it to the Neon Boneyard. After all, that is where Las Vegas' neon 7-Eleven sign should go.
