In June 2004, a new musical show called "Shake, Rattle and Rock" was introduced in the Westward Ho's showroom – known as the Crown Room – for a two-month period, as part of the Fabulous '50s Doo-Wop Dinner and Show. Howard returned to the Westward Ho for afternoon shows beginning in January 2005. The Ho In November 2004, a new business known as The Ho was opened on the rear portion of the Westward Ho's property, at 2920 South Industrial Road. The Ho offered a small casino with five table games, 200 slot machines, and a sports book. Also offered was a convenience store, a gas station, a lounge and a restaurant. The Ho had 130 employees and 300 parking spaces, and was the only gas station on Industrial Road. The Las Vegas Review-Journal noted that The Ho had "possibly the smallest sports book ever built, with four television screens." Management at the Westward Ho hoped to have The Ho become a popular locals casino, particularly among people who worked in the hundreds of businesses along Industrial Road. Other potential clientele would include people who used Industrial Road to avoid traffic on the nearby Las Vegas Strip. As of January 2005, The Ho's lounge area was used for karaoke contests. Management planned to ultimately introduce live entertainment for five to six nights a week. "The Ho" was a shortened name for the Westward Ho that had been commonly used by customers. The Ho closed on November 25, 2005.
