EDITOR’S NOTE: A new “Vegas Myths Busted” publishes every Monday, with a bonus Flashback Friday edition. Today’s edition originally ran on Jan. 15, 2024. 

In the 1960s, back when Las Vegas’ Meadows Addition neighborhood was nice, showgirls lived there. They liked to sunbathe au naturel at their apartment pools because they didn’t like tan lines.

That’s the commonly told story of how the Naked City, a community of low-rent apartment buildings and houses in the shadow of the Stratosphere just north of the Las Vegas Strip, got its nickname.

About Badge Blitz

A great betting app should feel fast and stable, even on modest phones and slow networks. Nobody wants a crash or a lag right when a match is about to start.

Look for an app that offers live or in-play betting if you enjoy reacting to the game as it unfolds. Live odds update constantly and give you a completely different betting experience.

A clean, simple layout matters more than flashy design. Menus should be easy to navigate, and placing a bet should take only a few taps from the home screen.

The game arrived on September 15, 2026, and forms part of BGaming’s Entertainment line.

The release leans on a mechanic BGaming has run before rather than a new core engine. The Duel feature triggers when a VS symbol lands on the game’s 5×5 grid along with a win. At that point the symbol expands as a whole-reel Wild, and an animated showdown plays out, with the winner showing a multiplier of up to ×100.

That familiarity is the point. BGaming explained that the game has been inspired by the success of other games featuring the Duel mechanic. In other words, the studio is iterating on a framework it already trusts and attaching its most recognizable characters to it.
