00:001027 VGS.
00:01All right, here's a look at what you need to know today.
00:04Obviously, yesterday, 4th of July, celebrations abound.
00:07I made it out to Summerlin Parkway for like the last 10 seconds of the station fireworks.
00:13I was driving past Red Rock as fireworks were going off.
00:17Oh, wow.
00:17Yeah.
00:18You barely made it.
00:19It's madness.
00:19You know what?
00:20Like 215 just becomes a parking lot.
00:21People just park on 215 and watch the fireworks.
00:24It really, it's beautiful.
00:25It was crazy.
00:26It was really cool.
00:27I didn't realize it was such a hot spot.
00:28Oh, man, things were just open again.
00:30It's just nice.
00:31This is the first year we're like 100%.
00:33Like everyone's like, okay, we're out of the thick of it.
00:36Like there's no Delta.
00:38Yes, sir.
00:38Omicron's there.
00:39But hey, people seem to be doing all right.
00:41The Summerlin Patriotic Parade was yesterday for the first time in two years.
00:46Wow.
00:46Golden Knights, Zach Whitecloud and Logan Thompson.
00:49They had a float of their own.
00:51The fireworks went off everywhere.
00:52And then the website, ispyfireworks.com.
00:54Very busy as people were dropping mortar.
00:58Shelf at three in the morning.
01:00Now, if you had to guess, what do you think the biggest complaining area of the valley
01:05is when it comes to fireworks last year?
01:07What do you think?
01:08I would say Summerlin.
01:11No.
01:11Believe it or not, the least.
01:13No way.
01:14They complain the least.
01:15No way.
01:16Shocking.
01:17With all due respect to Summerlin.
01:18But I think everyone just assumes, you know, you got Red Rock there.
01:21We're going to hear fireworks.
01:22This is bound to happen.
01:23No, the biggest complainer, North Las Vegas.
01:26Pretty much the entire, all of North Las Vegas.
01:29Really?
01:30Between the 15 and 95.
01:33Everywhere there.
01:34Boom.
01:34North Las Vegas.
01:35Big complainers.
01:36Mountain's Edge.
01:36A close second.
01:37Because I live in Mountain's Edge.
01:39Nothing but dirt.
01:42Nothing but just places for people to launch rockets into space.
01:48And then finally, northwest of downtown at Washington Pecos.
01:52That's the third biggest complaining area.
01:55A lot of animals running away during this time.
01:57My dog was hiding in the most weird spots last night because he's so freaked out.
02:02We make sure to keep him inside.
02:04Hopefully, you did the same as well.
02:06Well, if not, chances are your dog might be with the Animal Foundation.
02:10And they're letting you know if you do have a missing animal, they're going to be waiving
02:12the reclaim fees through July 10th.
02:15If you are looking for an animal, lost and found section of the Animal Foundation website.
02:19That's fabulous.
02:20It is.
02:21Now, your dog is actually not here in Vegas right now.
02:23He's not.
02:24He's in West Virginia.
02:24He's still on vacation.
02:25Yeah.
02:26You have any intention of bringing him back?
02:27Oh, yeah.
02:28Oh, yeah.
02:29But just coming back.
02:30Your family's overfeeding him.
02:31He's ginormous right now.
02:34He's a big fat little.
02:35He's ginormous all of 40 pounds right now.
02:3740 pounds.
02:38He's a kicker dog.
02:3840 pounds.
02:39I know.
02:39He's supposed to be like 23 max.
02:41He's a rollable dog.
02:43I know.
02:43He's a big roly-poly right now.
02:45Oh, man.
02:45He's a big tank.
02:46One of the best things to do for free in Las Vegas is to watch the flights take off
02:52at Harry Reid International.
02:53Yes.
02:54And you haven't been able to do that, at least not at the Sunset Viewing Area, until this
03:00weekend.
03:00They just reopened it after two years.
03:02It was closed.
03:03I remember right at the beginning of the pandemic, it went down there.
03:06And then they had to shut down for two years.
03:08And it was not because they were worried people were going to get sick there, but it was more
03:11just the budget reasons, you know, airport didn't have a lot going on.
03:14So that's where he opened, nine to nine daily.
03:17And finally, Joey Chestnut, once again winning the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Championship there
03:23in New Jersey.
03:24Wow.
03:25How many times has he won?
03:26I think that's 15.
03:28Oh, my word.
03:29He's a monster.
03:30And he ate 63, which is kind of low for him.
03:33But he has a pretty good excuse because halfway into his competition, a protester showed up
03:39right next to him holding a sign that essentially, you know, it's an anti-meat.
03:44So while he's in the competition, like on Hot Dog 17, which by the way.
03:51Hot Dog 17.
03:52You love hot dogs.
03:53I do.
03:54I had four yesterday.
03:55You had four hot dogs.
03:56I did.
03:57Boiled or grilled?
03:58I don't know.
03:59How does Wienerschnitzel make them?
04:01I don't know.
04:02It's probably boiled.
04:03I gave Wienerschnitzel good business yesterday.
04:06I went twice and I got two hot dogs both times.
04:08Well, fair enough.
04:09It's very good.
04:10Their corn dogs are great.
04:11Yeah.
04:11He put the protester in a UFC style, like, neck choke hold.
04:19Mid-eating hot dogs?
04:20And whipped him to the side.
04:22Oh, my word.
04:23It really was incredible.
04:25Oh, my word.
04:26I would love to see.
04:28Give me Joey Chestnut.
04:29Just one, a one-day contract at the UFC.
04:35Oh, my gosh.
04:36Iconic.
04:37It needs to happen.
04:37It was unbelievable form.
04:39We'll have the video up on our website, 1027bgs.com.
