With the calm music playing in the background finely tuned with every drop of water I fell in love. Along with the gigantic crowd of people that surrounded me I could feel the warmth of every light bulb that lit up the city that never sleeps. Comparing Las Vegas to my hometown Madrid, I find many differences that only I may be able to depict. Some of the differences include the food, the culture and the demographic of the people in the community. Out of the many differences I chose to compare three things that I found were the most interesting. Madrid and Las Vegas are very different in term of climate, economy,

There are many rhetorical tools used in advertising today to grab the readers’ attention. Some of those include, but are not limited to, color, sex, surroundings, and fantasy.

It uses visual pictures, inviting colors, and an enticing choice of narrative as its strategy. One of the many things that Vegas has to offer is the chance to get rid of all of your inhibitions and just have fun. Also, the fact that Las Vegas is famous for the saying, “What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas”, sends a message to vacationers
The first thing I usually do when I get to Vegas is start people watching. You would be amazed with how different people are in this world.almost everywhere you look you see people dressed up in the most random outfits to mostly get attention from other people.The scariest part about people watching is the ones in the costumes. Considering, I absolutely hate when people dress up in costumes. The random people do the weirdest and craziest stuff and think nothing of it.

To a nation that had just come out of the Progressive Era, the legalization of such vices was absolutely unheard of. Suddenly, mob criminals could, not only become legitimate businessmen, but were welcomed within the community. It does not take much imagination to hear a collective gasp from law enforcement, activist, religious and social zealots throughout the country. For, not only did Las Vegas legalize and capitalize on these social faux pas, Las Vegas flaunted and delighted in its success. Added to this was the federal governments decision to build an atomic test site 65 miles away. “Las Vegas basked in the publicity of a unique new experiment” (Hulse, 215). “Great!” Las Vegas seemed to cheer, “let the advertisement and capitalism
