A polarizing post for The Mirage on Facebook.

Kardashian. Just the word will evoke squeals, disgust, eye rolls and, some cases, slight nausea so it's no surprise that when The Mirage excitedly revealed plans for a Kardashian Khaos retail store on Facebook, kalamity ensued.

We're excited to announce Kardashian Khaos is coming! A new retail store will open later this year & you're invited to experience the Kardashians like never before!

Close to 100 people gave the news a thumbs up, but just as many blasted the hotel for its decision with some going as far as saying they'll never stay there again:

Just for that Mirage, I will not be staying at your trashy hotel..! Your standards have just been lowered to the gutter..

Terrible decision, plain and simple. Is the Mirage so desperate you are now taking reality freak show participants as your new business partners? apparently yes.

I guess they want to attract the kids who drink and bet one cent at a time. It is amazing how casinos forget who pays the bills.

Who's the brainiac at MGM Resorts International who thought this would be a great idea to team up with that bunch? 90 plus negative responses and counting. Obviously a major dislike.

Will folks really stay somewhere else because a family of famewhores have set up shop? Probably not, but in a town where celebreality is usually met with not so much of a blink of the eye, it's klear The Mirage may have to take drastic measures. Like giving away some bedazzled tees. We're holding out for the Facebook "meet the Kardashian's" contest ourselves.

Hmm..

I figured Mirage was going to try and re-purpose itself for the higher-end market after they upped their resort fee and finished their suite remodels...  not really sure how chasing the famewhore market fits into that model.  

As an aside, that market of folks is a total turn off to me as a 30-something gambler.  I walked out of the Cosmo this weekend because I couldn't find a stall inside the Men's Room that didn't have a 23 year old boy puking in it, and I haven't been back to NYNY since the crowd shifted to look like it's straight out of Jersey Shore.
