Patrons never wanted to ask for “Millie,” a dancer who worked there for the entire 49-year run. Heh.
LAS VEGAS — The topless revue “Les Folies Bergere” has hung up its feathers after 49 years at the Tropicana hotel-casino in Las Vegas.
Many performers who had taken part in the show’s 29,000 runs since Christmas of 1959 crowded the set after its final curtain yesterday.

Allegedly, the performers were told to turn in their feathered boas and their antibiotics before before they were allowed to leave.
