There has to be a first for everything. And, "Bodies," the new exhibit at the Tropicana, is the first Vegas attraction that I am too squeamish to go to myself. I am amazed it is even here as a form of entertainment. The publicist for "Bodies" tells me it is an incredible learning experience, but I am curious: when did education become a goal in any casino's mission statement?
Still, the idea of seeing preserved organs and humans with their skin removed appealed to photographer Sarah Gerke. So, Gerke ventured there and sends this e-mail account along with her photos of the controversial exhibit. Read her account below.
