Masquerade in the Sky (Rio) - salacious?

#1

Well if you haven't seen the revamped Masquerade in the Sky, be prepared for
an eyeful. If I had kids under 12 I would be covering their eyes. It was
very suggestive. Dirty Dancing with less clothes. Like a sexy MTV video,
with lots of bumping and grinding. Up above you come the floats, now with
people wearing less also bumping and grinding to current "music". (rap or
whatever - not much melody, just a lot of beat).

I found it surprising that they'd gone this far 'adult'. If they were
topless, you'd be viewing one of those X-rated shows. It even ends with a giant
bed and orgy!

My husband said show is prurient. Provocative and salacious perhaps. I
have seen topless and X-rated shows like Crazy Girls and Ectasy, so I wasn't
outraged in any way. But it did seem a bit over the top sexually for a display
in public in the center of the Rio with lots of kids watching. Again,
nothing worse than on an MTV video, but somehow live it seemed more salacious than
watching a TV video.

By the way, when those Rio Bevertainers first showed up, I didn't think
their costumes could get any skimpier. But they have! Now they are essentially
wearing black bikinis with lace with a lot of holes over it. You see skin,
tits and asses hanging out, etc.

For both the Bevertainers and looking up at the Masquerade in the Sky
floats, you get quite a look up the crotches (though covered of course with those
tiny bikinis).

I don't consider myself a prude, but still, this seems a bit too suggestive
for children's consumption. Certainly a good way to distract gamblers I
suppose!

Meanwhile, still no FP VP at the Rio. Players might try the 98% $1 reel
slot carousels or look for progressives if you have to play there. Carnival
buffet is still excellent at about $23 per person for evening. It seemed like
they'd cut out the warm crab legs, but still had lots of cold and excellent
variety. Look for a coupon for a free steak (or ask if you are 7* or Diamond
when you buy buffet and they may give you a freebie). I was too full to get
the steak though.

If I had kids under 12, they wouldn't be in a casino! Then,
adults over 21, who wished to view salacious dancing, and
copious amounts of naked flesh, could do so with out incident.

It even ends with a giant

bed and orgy!
  
Just wondering if one can still purchase a ride in the parade and
really get up-close and personal? Not that I would ever do such a
thing ...

I would! That would be sweet. How much to ride on the bed?

well I don't want to open up the kids in vegas vs the no kids in vegas
war again (I know in the trip advisor forums it can fill pages!!)
but.........there is no need for a show that runs all over the "sky" of
a casino and has for years been known to be something you COULD bring
your kids to watch(and when they got lucky they got beads thrown at
them) turn into a "sexy" show. It WAS a cute show and a 5-10 minutes
distraction for kids.
We never have kids in vegas unless we are boating so they spend very
little time there....but we have used Rio as a place to stay when
having our kids there due to the suite system the rooms are bigger and
fit everyone.
Rio is one LV hotel that ALWAYS seems to have a alot of
kids....probably beacause of the suites...so thats a shame they chose
to make it a nasty show (plenty of that in LV if tahts what you want!)

"Nasty Show"?

Just like Ye Olde Pirates Show outside Treasure Island. But that changed, too. Seems to be a trend with a clear message.

don't have a pastor

don't have a problem with anyone gambling
don't even have a problem with sexy shows...if you know you are going
to one...
not that in favor of having it thrust upon you just because you
happen to be gambling in that casino.
have never cared for the beveratainers (or whatever they call the
singing/dancing cocktail people)have always felt embarassed for them
as most of them are pretty bad......
unfortunately Rio is the only Harrahs property where a standard room
fits 4+ easily and has boat parking.. so although I'd like to say I
won't go there again because of this I probably will

enjoy the show
thanks for the heads-up MsCraps
