That's some sad news, my condolences go out to his family.
I'm sure there are others that have attended Mr. Beinfeld's Winter Vegas show many more times than I did, but I was able to get to ten of them. These shows helped formulate my appreciation for fine doubles more than any other and my wife didn't mind attending because of the her chances of bumping into people like Tom Selleck and other TV and movie fame personalities. I recall the 1st couple of shows we attended were held in tents in a parking lot out behind the Sahara. Subsequently the show moved indoors at the Sahara. Then Mr. Beinfeld moved the show over to the Riviera. Following years saw the seen at the Tropicana and Mandalay Bay and then finally back to the Riviera. I sure hope Mr. Beinfeld's great tradition that he created will continue on . . .
