Alex, I would agreed with you, except I know from experience how many people lionize Hef outside the industry.

I've been to a few mansion parties, and everyone I know that isn't in the industry is awed by it. It's a combination of the cult of Hef's personality, the history, the parties, the culture to which it is attached - the mansion has its own history, status, and attributes that make it a destination that many still want the opportunity to achieve, regardless of the PB brand as a whole - the mansion stands apart from that as a landmark to decadence in and of itself in the public mind.
