Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Business and Organization	Business and Organization Business We are a Maryland corporation that is primarily engaged in the business of owning and acquiring gaming, hospitality and entertainment destinations, subject to long-term triple net leases. As of June 30, 2020, our national, geographically diverse portfolio consisted of 28 market-leading properties, including Caesars Palace Las Vegas and Harrah’s Las Vegas (and following the consummation of the Eldorado Transaction on July 20, 2020, our portfolio consists of 31 properties). As of June 30, 2020, our properties are leased to, and our tenants are, subsidiaries of Pre-Merger Caesars, Penn National, Hard Rock, Century Casinos and JACK Entertainment (and following the consummation of the Eldorado Transaction on July 20, 2020, Caesars, Penn National, Hard Rock, Century Casinos and JACK Entertainment). We also own and operate four championship golf courses located near certain of our properties. We conduct our operations as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As such, we generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on our taxable income to the extent that we annually distribute all of our net taxable income to stockholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT. We conduct our real property business through our Operating Partnership and our golf course business, through a taxable REIT subsidiary (a “TRS”), VICI Golf. Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our Business On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency. Among the broader public health, societal and global impact, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in state governments and/or regulatory authorities issuing various directives, mandates, orders or similar actions, resulting in the temporary closure of our tenants’ operations at all of our properties. Our golf course business has also been impacted, with all four courses temporarily ceasing operations in March 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, although our golf courses were subsequently reopened in early to mid-May 2020 in compliance with applicable regulations and restrictions. As of July 29, 2020, the operations of substantially all of our properties have reopened, subject to operating limitations set forth by the state and local governments and/or regulatory authorities. One property, Greektown, remains closed as the local government and regulatory authority have yet to allow it to reopen. While most of our tenants’ facilities at our properties have reopened, they have reopened at reduced capacity and subject to additional operating restrictions, and we cannot predict how long they will be required to operate subject to such operating restrictions or whether they will be subject to additional restrictions or forced to reclose in the future. The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic ultimately impacts us and our tenants continues to depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures on our tenants, including the length of time our tenants’ operations at our properties are closed or subject to operating restrictions, including reduced capacity, any requirement for our tenants’ operations to reclose, our tenants’ financial performance following reopening and the extent of operating limitations and reduced capacity requirements upon reopening. We continue to closely monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on us, our tenants and our pending transactions. All of our tenants have fulfilled their rent obligations in full through July 2020 and we continue to engage with our tenants in connection with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on their operations, liquidity and financial performance. Due to the continuing uncertainty of the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the impact on us and our tenants discussed above, there can be no assurance that our tenants will continue to fulfill their rent obligations in full.
