The extravagant Flamingo was widely imitated in the 1950s, and entertainment was an important part of the new casinos’ allure. Frank Sinatra performed at the Sands hotel in 1960, with friends including John F. Kennedy in the audience. From then on Vegas became a playground of the so-called Rat Pack (Sinatra, Sammy Davis, Jr., Dean Martin, Peter Lawford, Joey Bishop, et al ).
