$50 Pizza at MGM Grand Casino Sparks Online Frenzy
A viral video revealed a pizza at MGM Grand in Las Vegas costs between $47.95 and $53.95, sparking outrage online.Summary
A video posted by @shi***boyicey on X (formerly Twitter) showing the prices of pizzas at the MGM Grand Casino in Las Vegas has gone viral, igniting a debate about the city’s increasingly high costs. The menu lists cheese pizzas for $47.95, with prices rising to $53.95 for gourmet options. Social media users have labeled Las Vegas an “absolute scam,” with one post on X garnering over 500,000 views. This incident follows similar outrage over a $13 Snickers bar earlier in the year and coincides with a 7.5 percent drop in Las Vegas visitors in 2025. Some attribute the rising prices and declining tourism to economic anxiety and political factors, while others see it as a sign of a changing Las Vegas focused less on affordable fun and more on exploiting vulnerability.
