The Mob Museum in Las Vegas, NV doesn’t feel like your average national museum. If you’re anything like us, you’re not going out of your way to spend $30/person to walk through a museum.
But this is different…
The Mob Museum is a national museum of organized crime and mob history that gives you a window into American organized crime’s impact through immersive exhibits with either a self guided tour, audio tours, and video presentations or guided tours.
It’s really worth every penny of the admission price, and its a fun way to spend an afternoon.
Interactive Exhibits
The Mob Museum has three levels of interactive displays. Here are a few examples of how you can get involved: The Line Up – get in a mock police lineup holding a booking card and get your picture taken.
Watch videos – Small rooms setup throughout the museum with about 20 seats in each with a large screen showing a video about a particular topic or gangster. There are also small screens set into the wall with interviews with the mob members who flipped to informant, old police recollection, and newscasts from the time. All very interesting and you can choose which ones you want to watch.
Take an audio tour and pick up an old phone and hear what the wire taps sounded like.
Mob Museum Weapons
On the third floor shows the targets of the G-Men, and you can shoot a gun at the target as practice, but beware…its loud!
You can even try the simulated weapons training law enforcement underwent.
The Courtroom Show
The Courtroom on the second floor of the Mob Museum is an exact replica of the Kefauver Hearings in Las Vegas that put mobsters and businessmen on the stand in the same building you sit in at the Mob Museum.
On the way out you pass by a long wall of 100 Years of Made Men. This is a fascinating way to display the most important and notorious figures in the Mob.
The Mob Museum is a fun couple of hours, a great thing to do in Vegas during the day, and definitely doesn’t feel like a museum.
