O’Sheas Casino opened in 1989 beside the Imperial Palace on the Las Vegas Strip as a spirited, budget-friendly gem with an Irish pub atmosphere, offering cheap drinks, loose slots, beer pong, and its beloved mascot, Lucky the Leprechaun. Though it didn’t have a hotel, it quickly became a favorite for visitors seeking fun without the frills. The photo captures that vibrant era with its whimsical castle-like façade, bustling street activity, and a sense of everyday excitement that defined pre-LINQ Vegas. After closing in 2012, O’Sheas made a cheerful comeback in 2013 inside the LINQ Promenade, keeping its playful energy and welcoming vibe alive for a new generation of revelers.

The Casino opened in 1976 as a modest gambling spot next to a budget motel, later changing its name to Bingo Palace to attract locals. In 1984, a public naming contest gave rise to Palace Station, complete with railroad-inspired neon signs. Under Frank Fertitta Jr.’s ownership, the property expanded into a high-rise resort and became the first member of the growing Station Casinos chain. It made headlines over the years—most notably for a record-setting $27 million slot jackpot and the 2007 O.J. Simpson incident. After a major renovation from 2016 to 2019, Palace Station shed its train theme and donated vintage signs to the Neon Museum, preserving its place in Las Vegas history as a well-loved local favorite.
