YESTERDAY IN 1946: Bugsy Siegel opens Flamingo Hotel

Mobster Bugsy Siegel opens the glitzy Flamingo Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada on December 26, 1946.   Well-known singer and comedian Jimmy Durante headlined the night's entertainment, with music by Cuban band leader Xavier Cugat.

Actually, a lot of people whoā€™ve never ridden a motorcycle in their life have hot takes on what should be done with Indian Motorcycle. Itā€™s a topic which was dealt with back in the 90s before anyone had even heard of cancel culture, but thatā€™s how long these types of sentiments have existed in society.
