The 50-foot-tall neon cowboy outside the Pioneer Club has been waving to Las Vegas visitors since 1947 (though, truth be told, he had a makeover and was replaced by a newer version in 1951). His neon sidekick, Vegas Vicki, went up across the street in 1980.

In a city that implodes many things more than 30 years old to build something "bigger and better," this is an ancient artifact. But it's still just a neon sign, after all. Not much active competition for it in the Downtown location, though there is a rather free-form "Neon Museum" at one end of Fremont Street that offers other older examples of the genre.
