Real World reunites at Palms

The show was so successful in 2002 that no one doubts that Real World Las Vegas was a huge benefit not only to Palms specifically but to the city generally. The rumors have already been widely reported; so I wanted to await the official word. I now have that. A Palms spokesperson e-mailed me back this morning: "I can confirm that the Real World Las Vegas cast will be coming back to the Palms for a reunion and of course staying in the Real World suite." This, of course, would be the cast of Season 12 of the hit MTV show that was almost the starting point for contemporary Las Vegas' love affair with cable television. The show was so hot that even the Palms nightclub, Rain, by frequently becoming a focus of the show, wound up playing an important part as catalyst to the nascent days of the now booming resort club scene.
