So here's the montage version of the Party at the Panorama that KSNV Channel 3 anchor Marie Mortera staged featuring me, Marie's boyfriend and Panorama resident Amy Turner, whom many of you know as fill-in guest host on The Strip and co-host of the GritstoGlitz podcast. (Ladies, surely this experience merits a new edition of your show?!?)
At the end of the video is a photo montage from behind the scenes and of the fireworks from the Panorama deck.
A few things to note:
* I didn't record the closings/goodbyes because the show went over time and Cox Cable is simply incapable of knowing when shows actually end. But thanks to Norm Kresge of Las Vegas for helping me figure out how to get it from DVR to DVD to YouTube!
* KSNV won the night! Their 11:45-midnight ratings were stratospheric. I'm quite proud not just because I got to participate but because it was, of course, Miles who managed this coverage and ran the show from the News 3 ranch. I don't know what the other channels were doing, but it's clear that News 3 has regained its mojo after losing to KLAS a couple years running. Yay! Miles hates it when I toot his horn, but toot toot and deal with it, Smitty.
* We did the party in the Panorama unit I own. Marie misspoke about Amy owning it, but Amy has been living there for about six months.
* KSNV arranged the food from LBS Burger and Hachi at Red Rock Resort and the Champagne provided by Southern Wine & Spirits. I was not involved in those arrangements. It was all quite lovely, though!
* Happy New Year, Everyone. If you don't mind, here's the most awesome picture taken so far in 2011:
As you can see, Aces (left) is already an integrated part of the family with Black and Jack. Hooray!

This was one of the most memorable New Year's Eves of my life! Thank you so much, Steve, for always making my life so fun and exciting!
In addition to the wonderful Red Rock restaurants you listed -- Hachi and LBS Burger -- don't forget the fabulous lobster and beef from T-Bones! I'm still swooning.
Great work on posting the video and your edits. Amy can get ready for the same thing next year! The news reporter for 3 did a nice job, I saw that because every time I am in Vegas my brother calls the TV news market in LV (purgotory) as we have seen some real stiffs flub lines etc. I can also see in and out burger from your balcony!
WOW! What a view!
Thanks for the video, Steve. It was really well done.
I remember you bought a condo just off The Strip as an investment and got caught, like everybody else, holding a property you couldn't sell, so you were renting it out. I don't really remember that it was in The Panorama, but it kind of rings a bell. Is the apartment where the party took place that apartment?
Great stuff, looks like it was a lot of fun!!
What a cutie! (Talking about Marie, not you Steve. Although you looked pretty good in a tux.)
