LAS VEGAS (FOX5) -
Las Vegans who want to witness next month's burning of a 20-foot showgirl statue during First Friday can win a front row seat at a Feb. 23 fundraising event at Insert Coin(s) on Fremont Street.
The video game-themed bar will host the "Burn Vegas Burn" party to raise money for construction of the wooden effigy, "Lucky Lady Lucy," who will be modeled after the popular Burning Man festival in northern Nevada.

It's an ‘80s themed party, which means $5 admission for guests who come dressed in clothing from the decade that brought us "Wall Street," the Rubik's Cube and MTV. Everyone else will pay $10 at the door.
All proceeds will go to pay for construction costs of the statue.
Insert Coin(s) will also raffle off a Playstation Vita system, two front-row seats to the March 2 public burn, tickets to the after party and a two-night stay at the El Cortez hotel.
Donations are also being accepted on the crowd-funding website IndieGoGo.
