Andrew LaMew

Helping create Temptation Sundays party After National Pride Month, we open up the conversation with Andrew LaMew, food and beverage general manager for the Luxor Pool and its weekly event, Temptation Sundays, about what Pride means to him. “I think one of the things that I love about Pride is that it’s taking us in the right direction as far as the inclusivity as a country and I hope that in the long run, and I hope this doesn’t sound bad, that Pride is going to fade out because it’s going to be so accepted by everybody that we no longer have to celebrate Pride because it’s finally got to that point where everyone is accepted.” And, at Temptation Sundays, the Strip’s original LGBTQ+ pool party now in its 11th season, everyone is accepted, says LaMew. “It doesn’t matter what you identify as, what your ethnicity is, where you’re from—everyone’s welcome at Temptation Sundays.” LaMew joined the pool in 2019, after working at various properties across the Strip, with a bulk of his experience concentrated on helping to run pools. As the F&B manager for the pool, LaMew “provides my team with the tools they need to give our guests the best food and beverage experience. I didn’t know a lot about the city and now I’m proud of what I’ve done, what I’ve accomplished. I look back at Detroit, it’s a phenomenal city, the family and commu-
