| Gold &
Silver Pawn Shop in downtown Las Vegas is the location of the
popular history channel show Pawn Stars. The pawn shop has become
so popular that there is usually a line to get in the place.
Tourist added the shop to their list of things to do in Las
Vegas and the lines started forming. Admission is free you just
might have to wait a while to get in.
Chances are you will not see any of shows characters but you
can get a picture with a cardboard cut-out of Rick and Corey.
If you happen to visit when one of the stars are there they
usually surrounded by people. About a third of the shop is designated
for Pawn Stars merchandise, shirts, hats, stickers, magnets
and just about anything they can make a buck with.
Everything in the pawn shop looks like the show. The store is
on the small side and if there is a line they keep people moving
through at a fast pace unless they are buying. The cast of the
show no longer work in the shop on a day to day basis. When
they are there the crowds can get crazy.
Gold & Silver Pawn Shop has turned into more of a tourist
attraction than an actual pawn store. You can still buy and
pawn items however 95% of the customers are there out of curiosity. |
