Fear and Loathing Excerpt on North Vegas

In his 1971 classic Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Hunter S. Thompson offered this warning in regards to North Vegas:

“North Vegas is where you go when you’ve fucked up once too often on the Strip, and when you’re not even welcome in the cut-rate downtown places. . . . This is Nevada’s answer to East St. Louis — a slum and a graveyard, last stop before permanent exile to Ely or Winnemucca.”
