I had previously announced that Randy's Donuts would be opening a Las Vegas location. From the moment I learned of their newest location, I knew that I would be stopping by the grand opening on August 17th. Nothing was going to stop me. I was excited to see the transformation of the building at 2170 South Rainbow Boulevard and experience the chaos I was sure would ensure. The iconic Los Angeles landmark has been serving scrumptious donuts since 1952, and the franchise has grown insanely popular. Most importantly, I was bound and determined to get my free glazed donut.
I documented the experience from start to finish. Let me just say, the chaos most definitely ensued. From bracing the overwhelming crowd, to Las Vegas Metro Police Department and Las Vegas Fire & Rescue ultimately pulling up to the shop. There was no lack of excitement, and the excitement hasn't subsided. Randy's Donuts Las Vegas has had to adjust their hours to 5:30 AM - SOLD OUT due to the incredible response they've received.
Does Randy's Donuts deserve the hype? Was it worth the two hour wait outside in the sweltering heat?
Take a peep at the action through my camera lens and see what I had to say in Sammi's Hot Take:

Las Vegas: Pumpkin Spice Lattes, Fall-Inspired Drinks Start Tomorrow
Pumpkin spice and fall flavors during this August heat? Count us in.
If you're hankering for a toasty-flavored drink that reminds you of crisp autumn air then we have splendid news for you.
Dunkin' Donuts will be rolling out its fall menu tomorrow Aug. 17, according to its website.
The donut-and-coffee chain will bring back some of its signature and fan-favorite items on the fall menu.
According to Dunkin' Donuts' newsroom, "fall isn't just a season, it's a lifestyle."
Items that are returning tomorrow include:
Along with this, the donut chain will unveil NEW items as part of their fall menu. These new items are the Blood Orange Dunkin Refresher and the Nutty Pumpkin Coffee.
Dunkin' will also have great deals for this upcoming season. Starting Aug. 17 until Sept. 13, you can enjoy a $3 medium Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew or a Pumpkin Spice Signature Latte.
However, we know there's a group of people who absolutely refuse to order anything except Starbucks' cult-classic pumpkin spice latte. So you may be asking yourself, "When will Starbucks release their PSL-flavored drinks?"
Well, the answer isn't as clear cut.
According to EatThisNotThat.com, internet sleuths swirled around rumors that Starbucks will release their fall menu items on Aug. 30. But, these are -- as said before -- simply rumors, and the coffee giant hasn't released an official statement regarding the drop date for the pumpkin spice concoctions.
Despite this, you can still indulge in a PSL-flavored drink. Although we don't have a clear date for the actual Starbucks stores, grocery stores will start carrying fall-flavored items. And like Dunkin', Starbucks had to add new contenders in their fall-flavor roster.
New flavors will include Starbucks® Pumpkin Cream Nitro Cold Brew and Starbucks® Salted Caramel Mocha Flavored Coffee, according to a press release.
And don't worry. You can still expect the original flavors to be sitting on store shelves. Seasonal favorites include Starbucks® Pumpkin Spice Flavored Coffee, Starbucks® Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew Concentrate, Starbucks® Pumpkin Spice Flavored Creamer, Starbucks® Pumpkin Spice Flavored Non-Dairy Creamer, and Starbucks® Iced Espresso Pumpkin Spice Latte. Enjoy!
