Palazzo Sports Book Trumps Sports Bar
Las Vegas Sands officials announced with much fanfare the partnership with hip-hop mogul and businessman Jay-Z to bring the 40/40 Club to Palazzo.
Eight months after the club opened, Las Vegas Sands announced it will buy back the lease and close the club so the company can build a 24,000-square-foot race and sports book. Palazzo does not have a book. There is only a small window for sports wagers adjacent to the 40/40 Club and the book at the connected Venetian.
“By adding a complete gaming component, we will be able to create a very unique environment for our guests,” said Palazzo President Rob Goldstein.
The club closed at the end of September, and the new book should be operational as soon as October or November.
