    LAS VEGAS, NV AIRPORT MEDIA GUIDE OUR HISTORY ADVERTISING COMPANY AIRPORT ADVERTISING LAS VEGAS AIRPORT PROFILE TRAVELER PROFILE AIRPORT MARKET PROFILE MEDIA GUIDE COMPETITIVE MEDIA ANALYSIS MAPS PRODUCT OFFERINGS | LAS VEGAS | lamar.com | LAS VEGAS OUR HISTORY A simple flip of the coin in Pensacola, Florida, landed Charles W. Lamar Sr. the opportunity of a lifetime. In 1908, when Mr. Lamar and J.M. Coe decided to dissolve their three-year partnership, a coin toss was used to divide their assets: the Pensacola Opera House and the Pensacola Advertising Company, the small poster company created to promote the Opera House. Mr. Lamar lost the toss, and was left with the less-lucrative poster company, which he renamed Lamar Outdoor Advertising Company. Over the course of the next century, Mr. Lamar and his descendants built Lamar Advertising from a small sign company on the Gulf Coast into one of the largest providers of Out-of-Home advertising in the nation. Through generations of commitment, integrity, and innovation, Lamar has changed the nation’s landscape while still maintaining the character of a family business. | LAS VEGAS | lamar.com | LAS VEGAS AIRPORT ADVERTISING Airport advertising delivers your message to a saturated audience of affluent, educated, tech-savvy business and leisure travelers in a “high dwell environment.” Whether you are trying to raise awareness about your brand, product, or service, or you’d like to encourage point-of-sale, airport advertising meets your needs. Airport advertising stands out from other media options because of its high visibility. Advertisers have the opportunity to target an engaged audience as they journey through the airport, from security lines to baggage claim.
