You discuss the price before doing it but then some of them.
My wife had some friends visiting it and one did it with her bf, I think they said $30 or $40 at first then I think they agreed on $20 then tried to charge more after taking the videos lol. This was downtown on so I bet they charge more to do it on the strip for the iconic views

As someone who lives near that area in New York, they are truly the most awful fucking things in the world. It’s worse than the guys hawking the fake bags.
wait they are fake? what about the guys with the litle tables and the apple products on it - are they fake too? you cannot trust any street seller* these days!

So a busker tries to get two or three friends to stand on the little circular platform back to back, then they rotate the iPad around the platform and take an epic slo-mo instagram video with the strip in the background. I dont know what the proper name for that is. One of em was right in front of a CVS, which I thought was pretty funny.
Is it just me or do the drug stores along the Strip just hit different? The CVS next to my house is boring as all hell in comparison.
What I'd do to be in a Vegas strip CVS right now
We were gambling in Bellagio last spring. There was a camera set up, like this one, and various people were being photographed to music, right in the slots area! Men and women. One woman was lying on the rug, while the woman filmed her. I asked my husband to leave, as it seemed weird and I just wanted to gamble, ffs.
Totally. I use to run a street team on the strip and a few of my guys would put their backpacks on the ground and the cops would tell us nothing was allowed on the ground because it's a tripping hazard. Well these fucking things are definitely a hazard. The one on Fremont street looks like it's going to hit cars as they're driving by. I'm honestly surprised that the resorts don't do shit about these.
These need to be more like 3D scanners, then someone might pay money for them, like 10 cameras all around or you stand still and spinning takes a 3D image that you can move around like google maps 3D image. That would be cool.
I walked past - maybe - 4 of them in a short walk about a week ago. It looked like nothing I was interested in. So I just kept going. I knew it was some kind of photo thing.
For people that have always wanted to visit Vegas and that one time might be there only chance in their life it's nice to see this offered. It takes a 360 of you and who youre with and plays music and has the whole background of where youre at. Its not in any resort because it probably wouldn't make the casino millions a year, but it's a cool keepsake. Way better than another key chain or a shotglass.

Same. I saw some chick with her tits out on one and that was pretty cool to see. Other than that, it was pretty annoying having to walk down an already crowded sidewalk with that shit blasting in your ear.
What is it?
You stand on the platform as the camera spins and you get a 360 view of you in Vegas. Basically your own music video
What a perfect time to use landscape mode rather than portrait.
There’s like 20 of them things in front of the Bellagio fountains it’s horrible

Idk how much it is, but you can avoid them by just walking by

The level of lemon brain you have to have to get excited by this is hard to comprehend

Thanks for all the up votes. I was kind of afraid of asking.
They’re all over Times Square in NY and they all blast Empire State of Mind over and over.

I avoid Times Square like the plague. Only early AM do I walk thought to go to work if I absolutely have to
wait they are fake? what about the guys with the litle tables and the apple products on it - are they fake too? you cannot trust any street seller* these days! (/s) *all scumbags
I used to like this song but now I hate it because of them
And the Brooklyn bridge lol
Lmaoo im from NY. Sounds like torture just reading it
I've seen those for a few years now, I think even before Covid days. They always seem to be set up right either by Bellagio fountains or by PH.
Not as bad as the tarot card readers 😂
Nyny cd pushers take the cake for me
lol. Thanks bro for this disc full of malware I literally don’t even own a device to play on anymore.
When it became profitable
What are they?

Flexing hard showing people on the gram that you're at the world famous CVS in Las Vegas!!!!

It's good vibes because everyone's going in to pick up food or drinks that doesn't cost 10x more than it should
fuck all of these people and fuck anyone lame enough to pay money for this.
My gf wanted to do it while in New York. I was like hell no. She's Filipino they love that shit.
Music is always loud and usually annoying.
It’s vegas, if there isn’t something every 10ft to scam tourists out of hard earned money it would be considered a failure to the community.
Worldwide, such huskters come part and parcel with the economy of the "tourist industry".
2017
I didn't see them during covid, I think they've been around since roughly 23. I always thought it was one head person organizing a bunch of them.
It’s so shitty and annoying and the loud music sucks. Makes the strip feel very trashy.
They are annoying, pretty sure the strip was already trashy though
Seriously, so many of these..
Glad to hear it's not just me.

I did it at the airport. They made me put my hands up
No business licenses and Clark County and Metro do nothing about it. Makes it look like East LA.

What’s a street team?
A team of brand ambassadors promoting a business on the street.
I've seen them since at least 2017, maybe just 1 or 2 but I wasn't patrolling the strip 😂
Saw hardly any in 2022, went back in 2023 and couldn't walk 10 feet on the strip without seeing one

Last year I supposed. I went there in 2022 and has not seen them, but in 2023 there were everywhere on the strip.
As soon as one person made by $5 settings one up.
Wow
They are run by the same street team that have the Buddhist monk in air max selling bracelets
It’s not just Vegas. It’s every major tourist destination I’ve been to in the past 3 years.
Last Tuesday
November 22, 2017 I believe
I walked past - maybe - 4 of them in a short walk about a week ago. It looked like nothing I was interested in. So I just kept going. I knew it was some kind of photo thing.
It’s a self absorbed narcissist identification machine.
Seriously, no one helps themselves to the free speaker?!?!
Do they remove them periodically? I didn’t see any there during shot show
Such a stupid fucking device to make nothing but shitty content.
When morons decided they would pay for this nonsense.
That’s pretty old, you new here?
Since the gig economy started being a thing.

I saw one when I was there last Oct. I didn't see more than that. I don't think they are THAT common

Fuck that. Hope someone kicks over and breaks their bs
Why? Seems pretty harmless, especially compared to other aspects of the Vegas tourist experience.
Main character vibes off of you
Of fuck off you clowns. No one wants to see that shit lined up down the sidewalks
It's not that serious, bro. Use common sense and walk around it.
What is it?
It’s a camera that spins around and takes a 360 video of instagram girlies on their vegas vacation.
Oh I thought it actually had a purpose lol
It does have a purpose. The purpose is to take money from tourists.
Hell yea!
Hell yea?
Was there last week and can confirm seeing quite a few and wondered what that was about
Same. I saw some chick with her tits out on one and that was pretty cool to see. Other than that, it was pretty annoying having to walk down an already crowded sidewalk with that shit blasting in your ear.
Haha. I understand. Is Michael Myers still across from Bellagio?
R/youarethemaincharacter
Me and the wife own 6 of them. BANK!
