you think thats bad? how about the closure of the Mirage! that was a classic jewel and gone now!

[@charlesbyrne9253]

100% on point! The Wild West property would've made the West side of the 15 a "Sports district" you could have sports bars/retailers galore over there!! Huge parking lots, lots of tailgating and pregaming.... it would have been PERFECT. So, of course the powers that be in Clark County f'ked it up.

How true, the open land and warehouses in between the two stadiums would make for a perfect sports and entertainment corridor!

Hello Mark, It's not that the Oakland A's are the worst baseball team in the USA but a contributing factor is the city of Oakland. The team can no longer gat motivated like the era of the "Swingin' A's of the '70's (Rollie Fingers, Vida Blue, etc. etc. etc. My guess is the Athletics will have to change the name because LVAC (a physical fitness business) owns the name Las Vegas Athletic Club and will probably sue or let the LV A's use it for an enormous sum. So, are e gonna have the Las Vegas Athletics, or simply the Las Vegas A's? That would remove any possibility of a dispute with any local business as a simple single letter cannot be patented as the "A" would not stand for anything, much like the S in Harry S (notice no period!) Truman!

Hello, Blaming the city for your team beign so bad is a cop-out. Look at all the teams and leagues that have passed thu Las Vegas. Most of them failed for one simple reason, bad financials. No money in the bank when they started and like the A's, they figure the city will bail them out. You can put a good team in a cornfield in Iowa, and people will come. You put a bad team in the middle of the big city, and people will go elsewhere. (BTW Nice Bike)

lol, any team is better than no team

[@thevegastouristupdate]

Then, put the Las Vegas Aviators play there instead of these clowns. At least they win games and fill the stadium with people.

Wow, you are really negative, weird opinion?

[@thevegastouristupdate]

What’s weird about it? The team owner has not been honest with the fans. The company owning the land and hotel are in financial trouble. The team had a perfect place off the Strip that made more sense for a sport stadium. This is Vegas, we are supposed to be a world class city, so why not demand a world class team??
