How Wizard of Oz gave the Vegas Sphere product-market fit

Camillo bought Sphere stock after spotting the AI-enhanced Wizard of Oz show with 4D effects going viral on TikTok and pulling in travelers from Europe. Shaan notes the stock rose about 220% over the following year.

“They didn't quite nail product market fit at The Sphere until that Wizard of Oz came out and they're like, oh, take an old movie, use AI to make it more interesting in terms of visuals, to put it on this insane projection screen and then add some 4D effects like a tornado and the wind's blowing and all this stuff and all of a All of a sudden you created a unique human experience that would go viral on TikTok, which is exactly what happened. And now people from around the world, from Europe, are like, we're going to Vegas to go to this Sphere place to see this Wizard of Oz that we saw went viral on TikTok.”
