Tampico

The Tampico is a location within the Sierra Madre, added by the Dead Money add-on. It was meant to serve the guests of the Sierra Madre as the prime source of entertainment with the best pre-War acts and performers around, including Vera Keyes, Dean Domino, and many other popular entertainers. The player's final encounter with Dean Domino occurs here during Curtain Call at the Tampico.

Layout
The theatre features a front lobby area as soon as you walk inside. You will see a receptionist desk, which was most likely used to check in performers or take tickets from guests. There are two doors, to the left and to the right which both lead to the same area, however the one on the right is locked and you need a Lockpick skill of 50 to enter. As you enter the theatre, you will see that its layout is similar to an "Old World" dinner theatre with many tables, chairs, and a large stage in the center. Located in front of the stage there is a music stand with Vera's music on it. To the right of the stage is a locked door that requires a key. To the left is the main door to get backstage. There is one small upstairs section with a Hologram projector.

 * is a reference to the real world equivalent to The Tropicana Resort, which resides on the Las Vegas Strip. Dean Martin and The Rat Pack frequented this casino often.

Bugs

 * Sierra_Madre_Chip_Stretch_2.jpg Some of the walls in the Tampico lobby's corridors will display borders, frames and object textures when viewed from different angles, leading to some interesting wallpapers. It is even possible to see through the world to distant objects, and display them on the walls, such as the Sierra Madre chip.
