And you know what they say. Imitation is the best form of flattery. We truly are flattered and humbled! Keep up the great work, Las Vegas!

You Decide – MGM

The Comeback Kid – LUXOR

Two Months after the premiere of our Comeback Kid commercial for Luxor Las Vegas, Kayak searches for the hotel top any other local hotel, even the newly opened giants on the corner of Harmon and Las Vegas Blvd, according to a recent article by Vegas INC.

While we can’t take all the credit for this spike in Vegas tourism that is about to hit the city (people are spending more now in 2011 than they have in the past few years, and Las Vegas having lower room rates than any other city on Orbitz.com right now), we’d like to think that the TV placement, as well as the 7,000+ views of the commercial in a short 8 weeks on the official Luxor Las Vegas Youtube channel helped nudge things in the right direction.

Especially for the city whose past few summers have felt relatively slow.

Congrats Luxor!

According to the official Athenos Youtube page:
Yiayia (Greek, for grandmother) is a fan of simple, respectful food made the Greek way. That’s why she approves of ATHENOS. And that’s why she doesn’t approve of anything else.

And the results are fantastic.

Yiayia on Parenting

This one plays a bit on the current state of affairs in the US with more stay-at-home dad’s than there were in the previous three decades!

Yiayia on Fashion

Can you say the word Prostitute on TV these days? Or is this one reserved for Late Night TV?

Yiayia on Relationships

We love how the narrator never lets the main characters finish what they’re saying, because Yiayia couldn’t care less, and neither does the viewer!
