Oakland A's headed to Las Vegas

I guess the next question is whether Vegas is a strong-mayor or weak-mayor model.
Another, while we're at it: If the stadium site is not actually in Vegas but in Paradise, does the mayor of Vegas have any authority on the matter?

 

That’s probably why she’s complaining about it. She wants it to actually be in Vegas.

 

Dum-dum!

 

I wonder which casino owner put a horse's head in her bed.

 

A’s tickets will be the comp they give to small timers who don’t rate a free buffet.

 

No. Recall during the early days of covid, the city of Las Vegas shuttered the casinos, but the Strip, being outside city limits, vowed to stay open.'

 

Bally’s owns the Tropicana.

 

In the interview, the mayor had an odd combination of great recall of facts and seeming understanding of the issues with not caring what she said.

 

Curious what tax revenues are generated this week by Nevada and Vegas - though oddly enough, I could book a room right now at Circus Circus through Saturday at less than $100 a night. Figured every place would be booked months out, with elevated rates.

 

Must've been the head of some sway-backed 25-year-old nag then.

 

And you're close to Slots A Fun, definitely a win there.
