Chumlee's Candy on the Boulevard — Local services in Las Vegas

A Sweet Vegas Encounter: Meeting Chumlee at His Candy Store

After a fun evening exploring the sights and sounds of Las Vegas, including spending time at Rick Harrison's bar and hearing stories about the infamous grey wolves that wandered the bar, it was finally time to head back to Sacramento. But before we left, we got word that Chumlee could often be found hanging out at his candy store in the mornings, so we decided to make one final stop at the Pawn Plaza.

As we arrived, we were greeted with the familiar sight of a line wrapped around the building. But this time, the anticipation wasn’t for Rick—it was for Chumlee. He arrived right on time, unlocking the doors to his candy store and greeting the eager crowd. True to his style, he was sporting his infamous crocs. Chumlee is a funny guy, and it was clear that everyone around was excited to see him. The line moved quickly, and soon I found myself at the entrance.

The candy store itself was small, but it had every kind of candy you could possibly imagine. I couldn’t resist taking a little of everything—and everything. But what really stood out was how Chumlee only allowed a few people at a time into the store, giving each visitor a few minutes of his time. He was so genuine, chatting with everyone, taking pictures, and making sure each person felt special.

What was even more surprising was how humble he was. As we stood there talking, he shared a bit about the Pawn Stars journey. He mentioned how, at first, everything was business as usual at the pawn shop, and when the show aired, nothing really changed for a couple of weeks. But then, all of a sudden, the crowd grew to thousands. He told me that the success of the show wasn’t instant—it took a little while to catch on, but once it did, it never stopped. Even ten years after the show’s rise to fame, there was still a line around the block. It was amazing to see how humble he remained despite the continued success.

Chumlee gave off the vibe of a friend you hadn’t seen in years, yet it felt like you’d known him your whole life. He was down-to-earth, funny, and just a great guy all around. After paying for my candy, it was time to say our goodbyes, and the next group of fans entered the store to have their own special moment with Chumlee.

It was truly an unforgettable experience, seeing how genuinely kind and personable he was with his fans. If you ever get the chance to visit, I highly recommend stopping by. You’re not just going to get some awesome candy—you’ll also walk away with a story about one of the most humble and approachable...

My wife and I went to the candy store and were surprised at the selection. We ended up getting the beef jerky and a couple of root beers. The jerky was some of the best we have had and that is saying a lot since we are from Texas and there is beef jerky everywhere. We have always said that Abita's root beer was the best because they use pure cane sugar and because of the taste but this root beer was actually better. Super smooth with that real root beer flavor. We just wish that we could get it here in Texas or that they could ship it here. Sage Russell, who is Chumlee's brother, was running the place and answering our questions about other items in the store. He could not have been any friendlier and even posed for a couple of pictures. We thought he was just a super nice young man. Chumlee is very lucky to have a brother like that. Next time we are in Las Vegas we will be sure to stop by again for a lot more root beer and jerky and try some of the...

So much fun! While we were there Chumlee was working the door. He has lost so much weight, I didn't recognize him. I thought it was probably his little brother or something. We visited with him and he's super sweet! He also posed for pictures with us. My husband bought his bobblehead and he signed it for him. He's not at all like they made him look on Pawn Stars. He's actually very intelligent, but he is fun. Told us that they are filming the new Pawn Stars and he still works there. We watched the new shows and they have him behind the counter talking to people about the items they are there to sell. Didn't know if it was ok or not to post his picture. So I just posted a side view of him signing my...
