It’s possible we rode the VooDoo Zipline, but we occasionally have gaps in our memory due to the fact: 1) we drink, 2) we may or may not have heights issues.<\/p>\n
Let’s just say we did digital marketing for the SlotZilla zipline downtown for six years and rode it exactly once. After hypnosis. And some of the aforementioned drinking.<\/p>\n
The thrill ride at the off-Strip resort closed a few weeks ago, but it’s not news until we report it, everyone knows that.<\/p>\n It’s fair to say the Rio’s zipline didn’t benefit from the pandemic.<\/p>\n There are a lot of changes in the works at Rio, including the exit of Caesars Entertainment as the resort’s operator. The new owner, Dreamscape, will take over operations soon. And by that we mean the transition timeline hasn’t been finalized. Technically, Caesars Entertainment could be out as soon as Jan. 1, 2023.<\/p>\n Rio will be getting a massive renovation, to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars, and there are likely to be lots of new partnerships, while some old ones end.<\/p>\n Unlike other ziplines in Vegas—the aforementioned SlotZilla Zipline<\/a> downtown and the Fly Linq Zipline<\/a> on The Strip—VooDoo transported riders on something akin to a ski lift chair, with two passengers sitting side-by-side.<\/p>\n Riders flew between Rio’s Masquerade Tower and Ipanema Tower.<\/p>\n Here’s some video we took a safe distance away from the ride, accompanied by some truly horrific music. We have no idea where we got that, but we’re pretty sure it’s the same music used to coerce confessions in Russian prison camps.<\/p>\n![\"Las](\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/voodoo_zipline191.jpg\")
