Wanda Widdles Petitions Clark County to Rename Forgotten Street in Honor of The Gazillionaire of ABSINTHE Las Vegas

In celebration of National Boss's Day, the hapless assistant of The Gazillionaire of ABSINTHE at Caesars Palace, Wanda Widdles aims to recognize the greatest boss in the world by launching a petition for Clark County to rename a forgotten street in his honor. The campaign, which launched today, will place The Gazillionaire at the center of a one-woman, block-by-block initiative urging the county to rename one of the city's forgotten cul-de-sacs as Gazillionaire Court. For more information and to sign the petition, visit Change.org.

"The Gazillionaire really is the best possible boss anyone could ever dream of," gushed Widdles. "He lets me on stage to introduce him during the show every night, and I get to bring him drinks, take his suits to the dry cleaners, and basically be on call 24/7. It's such a joy that the idea of getting paid as well just doesn't even enter my mind."

During a recent trip to the National Liquidation Center to pawn her seriously-ill mother's wedding ring, the idea suddenly hit her as she walked straight into the pole of a street sign. While dazed and looking at the street sign on the corner of Jerry Lewis Way and Dean Martin Drive, she questioned, 'Why doesn't The Gazillionaire have a Las Vegas street named after him?"

If the campaign is successful, The Gazillionaire would join an illustrious list of Las Vegas celebrities who have been honored with a namesake street, including Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr, Mel Torme, Wayne Newton, Elvis Presley, Tupac and others.

"When he is not onstage hosting ABSINTHE, The Gazillionaire spends most of his time in court," shared Widdles. "So, turning a dead-end street into a court named after my boss would be a beautiful tribute."
