- Vegas Vic, a 40-foot neon cowboy sign on E Fremont Street, Las Vegas, is drawing tourist complaints about its lights being off or not waving.
- The iconic sign, which has stood since 1951 and is featured in various media, serves as an unofficial welcoming symbol for Sin City.
- Aaron Berger, CEO of the Neon Museum, suggests the sign requires a thorough restoration, which would be a significant investment for its property owners.
- Despite the City of Las Vegas confirming a restoration in 2023 to ensure the sign was 'fully lit,' complaints from residents and tourists using the hashtag '#FixVic' persist.
- City standards require signs like Vegas Vic to be illuminated from one hour before dusk to one hour before dawn and maintained in good structural condition.
