Cosmopolitan Jumps Onto the Truck Craze Bandwagon

Cosmo purple truck

The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas has jumped onto the "Truck" craze bandwagon by putting their own purple shiny thing on the road. This is linked to some kind of promotion, but who knows exactly what (Doritos?) One rumor is that they will sell unwin rings and mis-matched burgundy from the basement. I'm venturing a guess that this thing is probably geared more towards locals than tourists... unless they drive that thing to St. Louis or plan on parking it by the Linq. Oh... they're giving out keychains, slot lanyards, beer pong sets, Arctic Char, pork rinds and Johnny Blue? Ssssign meeee up!

Anybody else notice that truck has California plates?

More details on this as it develops.

Thanks Mac555 for the tweet tip and thanks to @shewchuk for the great photo!

Nice...classic late 70's/early 80's GMC G20 Stepvan. I have the exact model. Best first car ever.

The ol' G20. Never cornered worth a damn.

Yeah, but the 350 will run 400,000 miles, and driving with the door open is fun.

I wonder what unwin rings taste like.

This might be the Lost Abbey talking, but unless there is kimchee involved this whole thing is pretty stupid. Is this what casinos will be resorting to? Are things still this bad in Vegas?

I thought I saw something similar outside area, but it turned out to be the CDC first responders.

Being that it looks like a food truck, could we get it to sell stuff made by Jose Andres's company? Or do they only sell that perfect combination of heartbreak and edu-de-Douchebag that you get in Vegas casinos these days?

They should abandon it off the I-15 outside of Yermo.

What that truck needs is an Art-O-Mat machine......

Lol the Cosmo taqueria. Maybe they should offer tacos to potential members of gang shootings.

 vespajet posted on Sunday, 24th July 2011 - 1:24 pm

The tacos at China Poblano are muy delicioso.
