Las Vegas - the city the rewards tourists with free food, alcohol, even hotel rooms - is raising eyebrows as one of their top casinos has started charging for water

Sources close to Lewis are now saying that this rumor is untrue

The only problem is, the Lady Liberty featured in the photo isn’t the one that has spent the last 125 years in New York Harbor, rather it’s a 14-year-old replica which currently sits in front of the New York-New York casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.

In real life, the casino Statue of Liberty is only half the size of the original. However, it is almost impossible to tell the difference between the two in the photo on the stamp.
