Fertitta Entertainment’s nearly $18 billion acquisition of Caesars Entertainment has casino experts speculating what changes will come to the Las Vegas Strip.
When many in the Las Vegas valley hear the Fertitta name, they think of Station Casinos and Red Rock’s Fertitta brothers. Houston-based Tilman Fertitta is not one of them, he’s their cousin, with Fertitta Entertainment having nothing to do with the brothers.
Tilman Fertitta’s history in Las Vegas extends back to when he bought the Golden Nugget more than 20 years ago, he is also the biggest shareholder in Wynn Resorts.
In a 2009 interview with 8 News Now, Fertitta said a goal with the Golden Nugget was to improve all of downtown.
