Good morning, Las Vegas! I'm here in your inbox per usual to get you caught up on everything you need to know about what's going on in town. Because community news matters! Let's dive in.


First, today's weather:

Clouds and breaks of sun. High: 102 Low: 85.


Here are the top three stories today in Las Vegas:

  1. Some Las Vegas residents are getting Subway-themed tattoos in extra for sub sandwiches. One resident received sub sandwiches for life by getting a 12-inch by 12-inch tattoo inked on his back. The promotion was based on the size of the tattoo that the super-fan received. DJ Tambe inked the tattoos. (News3LV)
