Random Vegas
If you’re dealt a winning hand in video poker and accidentally fail to hold some or all of the cards before hitting “deal/draw”, some casinos, upon request, can review the last hand played and pay you what you would have one. (@VitalVegas)

It’s the best view I’ve ever seen of the mistake in the desert, shared by @VitalVegas. The giant MGM lion entrance formerly on the corner of Las Vegas Blvd and Tropicana. It still seems like a silly superstition that designers should have known about. Apparently, Asians consider it bad luck to walk under the mouth of a lion or some variation on that theme. So, they avoided entering the property via this entrance. In response, MGM decided to tear it down just 3 years after opening. It’s one of the largest architectural missteps in Vegas history.
