Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS	RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS MGP As further described in Note 1, prior to the closing of the VICI Transaction, the Company leased the real estate assets of The Mirage, Luxor, New York-New York, Park MGM, Excalibur, The Park, Gold Strike Tunica, MGM Grand Detroit, Beau Rivage, Borgata, Empire City, MGM National Harbor, MGM Northfield Park, and MGM Springfield pursuant to a master lease with MGP. The annual cash rent payments under the MGP master lease for the seventh lease year, which commenced on April 1, 2022, increased to $877 million from $873 million, due to the sixth 2% annual base rent escalator that went into effect on April 1, 2022, as the tenant and operating subsidiary sublessee, collectively, met the adjusted net revenue to rent ratio on which such escalator was contingent, which increased annual cash rent by $16 million, partially offset by the percentage rent reset that went into effect on April 1, 2022, calculated based on the percentage of average actual annual net revenue of the leased properties during the preceding five year period, which decreased annual cash rent by $12 million. In October 2021, MGP acquired the real estate assets of MGM Springfield from the Company and MGM Springfield was added to the master lease between the Company and MGP. Final regulatory approvals, which were not necessary for the transaction to close, are expected to be received within nine to twelve months following the close of the transaction. Until final regulatory approvals are obtained, the parties will be subject to a trust agreement, which provides for the property to go into a trust (or, at the Company’s option, be returned to the Company) during the interim period in the event that the regulator finds reasonable cause to believe that MGP may not be found suitable. The property will then remain in trust until a final determination regarding MGP’s suitability is made. All intercompany transactions, including transactions under the MGP master lease, have been eliminated in the Company’s consolidation of MGP. The public ownership of MGP’s Class A shares is recognized as noncontrolling interests in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As further described in Note 1, in April 2022, the Company completed a series of transactions with VICI and MGP whereby VICI acquired MGP in a stock-for-stock transaction. As part of the transaction, the Company entered into an amended and restated master lease with VICI.
