Las Vegas

What Pawn Stars Looked Like In 2003

Published

on

Ever wonder what the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop in Las Vegas was like prior to the History Channel show making it a household name?

We found some video footage from 2003, back when Dave Attell from “Insomniac” (remember that show?) visited the pawn shop in the middle of the night. What’s most surprising about the video is how different Rick Harrison looks.

The years have not been kind to him, that’s for sure!

    Is this show any good? I’ve never seen it.

      It’s one of my guilty pleasures.. So much so that when I went to Vegas in November, I stood in line with all the other schmucks just to check out the store.

      Pawn Stars, Storage Wars, Flip Men, I love all of that crap. 🙂

      It’s a neat show, and sometimes I really enjoy it. Last year when I was out in Las Vegas I visited the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop. It was a good decision because Fremont St was all of a 10 minute walk from there.

    I saw this video a while ago, it’s really weird to see how much different the shop and Rick look.

    Insomniac was an awesome show though, they need to bring that back!

      They definitely should bring “Insomniac” back.

    This brings back memories. I miss Dave Attell and “Insomniac”.
