Quote:Smaller businesses in Las Vegas, where tens of thousands of demonstrators gathered on the Strip, also took a hit. Javier Barajas said he closed his family’s four Mexican restaurants in Las Vegas because members of his staff warned him they would not show up, costing him more than $60,000 in revenue
What does "on the Strip" refer to?
@fansy,
"the Strip", in any city means the streets where the main nightlife gathers. In Vegas, it is the street which has the top flight casinos located along it.
"The Las Vegas Strip is an approximately 4.2-mile (6.8 km) stretch of Las Vegas Boulevard South in Clark County, Nevada."
