"We have never really worked out why there is a Titanic Exhibit in an Egyptian-themed hotel in Las Vegas Nevada, none of that really makes ANY sense, But hey this is Vegas, does it have to make sense?. We are keeping this in the museum section despite the fact it’s named “exhibit” as it just feels more Museum-like to us. So, Despite not making sense, the Exhibit is quite fascinating."
