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 March 31, 2021, our national, geographically diverse real estate portfolio consisted of 28 market-leading properties, including Caesars Palace Las Vegas and Harrah’s Las Vegas. Our properties are leased to, and our tenants are, subsidiaries of 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 Since the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, among the broader public health, societal and global impacts, the pandemic has resulted in state governments and/or regulatory authorities issuing various directives, mandates, orders or similar actions, which resulted in temporary closures of our tenants’ operations at all of our properties. Our golf course business was also impacted, with all four courses temporarily ceasing operations in March 2020 until their reopening in early to mid-May 2020 and, following such reopening, have continued to operate in compliance with applicable regulations and restrictions. Although all of our leased properties and our golf courses are currently open, they remain subject to any current or future operating limitations or closures imposed by state and local governments and/or regulatory authorities. As a result, our tenants’ facilities at our properties are currently generally operating 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 close again in the future. Our tenants have experienced additional challenges due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including, for example, cancellations and reductions in future events and reservations and satisfaction of capital expenditure and other contractual obligations. Due to these closures, operating restrictions and other factors, our tenants’ operations, liquidity and financial performance have been adversely affected, and the ongoing nature of the pandemic may further impact our tenants’ businesses and, accordingly, our business and financial performance. All of our tenants have fulfilled their rent obligations through April 2021 and we continue to engage with our tenants in connection with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on their businesses, including with respect to their operations, liquidity, financial performance and contingency planning. As a triple-net lessor, we believe we are generally in a strong creditor position and structurally insulated from operational and performance impacts of our tenants, both positive and negative. However, the full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic continues to adversely affect our tenants, and ultimately impacts us, will 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, including the availability, distribution, public acceptance and efficacy of one or more approved vaccines, new or mutated strains of COVID-19 (including vaccine-resistant strains) or a similar virus, the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures on our tenants, the length of time our tenants’ operations at our properties remain restricted or are required to close again in the future, our tenants’ financial performance and any future operating limitations.
