Carrot Top has become a must see show in Las Vegas. And now he is celebrating, yet another, milestone.

Carrot Top Celebrates 19 Years At The Luxor Las Vegas

Carrot Top officially celebrates 19 years at the Luxor Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas, on November 22, 2024. Carrot Top is the longest-running headlining comedian in Las Vegas.

Along with doing shows almost every night on the Las Vegas strip, Scott “Carrot Top” Thompson has been very busy this year. He has a staring appearance in the newly released documentary about the infamous watermelon smashing comedian, Gallagher. They definitely had a love-hate relationship, that Top talked extensively about on Neal Brennan's podcast.

Carrot Top Is 'King Of Props'

For nearly four decades, Carrot Top has been entertaining audiences worldwide with his comedic brilliance, as King of Props! He smartly blends pop culture, music, and the day's headlines into an always evolving, extremely funny show. 

Rarely will you see the same show twice. He cleverly creates props that are relevant to whatever is current – from the news headlines to a particular song he may have heard.

From humble beginnings on the road, in the comedy clubs, to 31 appearances on "The Tonight Show," Carrot Top's journey has been quite extraordinary. When he started, he had two trunks and a strobe light. That evolved into 35 trunks of props, and a team touring the country in an 18-wheeler. His show is more like a comedic rock concert - lights, music, fog machines, and streamer cannons.

Carrot Top Beyond The Stage

Carrot Top, has been voted Best Male Stand-Up Comedian, Best Comedian, and he is one of the most celebrated and successful comedians in decades.

His credits include hundreds of programs including Live with Kelly & Mark, The Dan Patrick Show, CBS Super Bowl LVIII Special, and Hacks.”  Podcasts like The Joe Rogan Experience, The Adam Corolla Show” and Really? No, Really, with Jason Alexander. Carrot Top also starred in his own movies “Chairman of the Board” and “Dennis the Menace Strikes Again.” And most recently, that new documenary about the comedic icon, Gallagher.

Carrot Top performs Monday through Saturday at 8 p.m. in the Atrium Showroom at Luxor Hotel and Casino. The show will be dark Nov 18 to Nov 23, but he'll be back on stage Nov 25, 2024.

Las Vegas Is The Best The Place To Elope According To This List

You're in love, and you want to get married. But you want to keep it simple, because it's YOUR day. Time to elope!

Keep Your Wedding Simple And Just Elope

You don't want to do the big wedding and family thing. It's expensive, it's a hassle, and you just want to keep it simple, and let's face it - stress free.

Some people don't like saying their vows, or professing their love for someone, in front of hundreds of people. They just don't like to be the center of attention.

And yes - weddings are expensive! Why start your marriage in debt? Save several thousands and elope.

Las Vegas Is The Best Place To Elope

Yep - Las Vegas is the best place to Elope. When you make the decision to just spontaneously sneak away and elope, choosing where exactly to do it only adds to the already exhilarating sense of excitement. 

According to this report, Las Vegas - the Sports and Entertainment Capital of the World - Is the number one place to elope. It topped this list of the top 10 places in the world to run off and get married.

Vegas takes center stage, because its glitzy, it's glamourous, and you can make it as obvious or quiet as you want. Believe it or not, it's easy to hide out here.

In Las Vegas, we host about 150 weddings on any given day. Quick, and small "I do's" happen all the time. For some reason, Las Vegas continues to be a hot spot for weddings, in general. It has become the number one destination for couples to say, you are my “forever." Especially when you're eloping. You can even do a popular drive -thru wedding in Las Vegas!

This Is Why Las Vegas Is The Best Place To Elope

Las Vegas is a playground for couples. After exchanging vows, newlyweds can enjoy the amazing energy of a city that is always moving. Even if it is just for a couple days.

See a show - Adele, Lady Gaga, Garth, Mariah, Shania - all the one names! Have dinner at a world class restaurant, or specialty cocktails at dozens of really cool, and iconic downtown bars.

Keep it cheap - and watch the changing scenes on the Sphere, or take a romantic gondola rides along the Vegas Strip.  

Want to go extreme? Take a helicopter tour of the city, or the Grand Canyon. Go zip-lining on Fremont Street, or literally freefall off of the Strat - a GREAT way to celebrate being newlyweds. There is definitely no shortage of things to do in Las Vegas for your elopement!

Here are some other beautiful laces to elope that also landed in the top 10.

1. Colorado

Face it, Colorado is beautiful, and there is an abundance of outdoor activities. Say “I do,” then take a hike in the Rockies, enjoy a picnic by a beautiful crystal-clear lake, or go horseback riding, or take a hot air balloon ride. In the winter, skiing or snowboarding in Aspen or Breckenridge. Or, just stay in the lodge - snowy romance!
