I was the director of advertising and PR for Excalibur from October of 1989 until December of 1992. What a joy ride. A ton of work, too.

Good lord! I didn’t remember that they had so many places to eat! Nowadays..you’re lucky to find a Vegas casino with a couple different places and almost none are 24/7

Neat! Sad what was once the largest, newest property is now ratty and aged, and just a step above Circus Circus

Man, I was born in 1992 after all this. Have the Medieval Times show, mix it well with the Irwindale Renaissance Faire, then Las Vegas in the bag and you have this. The Excalibur in and outside in this video is beautiful. Medieval games, a 4D theater, Medieval fantasy goodies and shows not just the Tournament, heck look at the fire-breathing dragon at 5:20-5:23! If only Las Vegas today did not get a de-theming treatment. When I was little going there I saw a statue of Merlin the Wizard at the Castle. I wish I was at the Excalibur as an adult in the early 90's

Reminds me of the Knights Inn chain of motels. Unfortunately, the castle theming can be kind of dreary. Thanks for posting this time capsule!

This video was such a nostalgic nuclear bomb! Thank you so very much for that! If you have any more or can find any more I would highly appreciate it if you posted them

I totally remember this video, thanks for posting this! Parents used to take us to Vegas during this time and we would always stay here so my sis and I could play the carnival games. Then I'd come upstairs and just watch this on repeat while my parents went down to gamble. Now I'm in my 40s, and I took my kids to Excalibur a couple years ago and the games and the lack of games sucked. We had a better time playing in the arcade at NYNY.

MGM turned Excalibur into a dirty dump. Recent reports of bedbugs highlight how badly they've neglected this hotel.

So cool I wish I could have gone but i was not born yet 😂. It would have been so cool back in its heyday though. 🏰🐉🧙🏻♂️

Essentially, over the time, they dethemed and cheapened the place. Legitly, in 1991, Excalibur looked much better than today.

This takes me back. The first thing I would do when I got to my room was watch the in-house video. Would you have one on the MGM? Thank you for sharing.

No, we never stayed at that venue.

Wow, this makes the current Excalibur look like a low-effort dump.

John John, one of the original bartenders on opening day in 1990, still tends the Lobby Bar and is the best damn bartender in town. The place may be a dump, but it still has its charms.
