              <p>When the Omnimax Theater at Caesars Palace opened in 1979 it was a transport into sight and sound. Located on the north side of the property it almost looked like a huge golf ball. The Omnimax featured laid back seating with surround sound and an overhead screen encompassing the entire range of vision. Plagued from the beginning with leaks in the screen it still lasted nearly 21 years closing in 2000.
