O'Sheas Casino is a casino located within The Linq on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada. As part of The Linq, it is owned and operated by Caesars Entertainment Corporation and is connected on the exterior to a shopping/dining promenade, also owned by Caesars. The revitalized O'Sheas has three bars - the main Dublin Up Bar, the Lucky Bar and the exterior-facing Blarney Bar. The casino includes beer pong tables, a stage, a dance floor and a pit with games including blackjack, roulette and craps.
O'Sheas was operated in conjunction with its next-door neighbor, the Flamingo, by their owner, Caesars Entertainment. Unlike most of the casinos on the Las Vegas Strip, prior to this date O'Sheas was not part of a resort and had no hotel. O'Sheas was briefly featured in the 1997 movie Vegas Vacation where the character Rusty Griswold won a car through a slot machine sitting outside the casino.
On February 26, 2000, O'Sheas made the 2001 edition of the Guinness Book of World Records by having 220 patrons contribute to the largest crowd to participate in a nationwide toast. The Great Guinness Toast, as it is called, was tallied nationwide as having 320,470 participants. That easily broke the previous year's record of 197,846 participants. In 2006, Vince Neil, lead singer of the band Mötley Crüe, opened Vince Neil Ink, a tattoo parlor inside of O'Sheas. It featured a room called "The Stage" that was visible from the Las Vegas Strip, so visitors could watch the tattoo artists work from outside.
Caesars announced in August 2011 that as part of The LINQ project, O'Sheas would be closed and relocated. O'Sheas closed on April 30, 2012. On May 1, 2012, the 7 story parking structure for O'Sheas Casino was imploded as part of The LINQ project. O'Sheas was reopened on December 27, 2013, as a casino within The Linq promenade.
