Great Game But the Ending Sucked…

First Real Aces Home Game of the Season…

Actually there had been another home game at T-Mobile Arena where the Knights play, but the Aces play in what is called “The House” in Mandalay Bay and that is where our season tickets are. They lost both home games, one at T-Mobile and one in “The House” but have won four games on the road. Go figure.

We got to see the third World Champion banner raised before the game. Third in four years since we started going to the games.

Anyway, the game was close and it was great fun, but wow was that end of town crowded  with not only the weekend tourists and 14,000 Aces fans, but across the street was the BTS concert of sixty thousand or so. Amazing the roads can handle this.

And right across Vegas Blvd from all of this is the new baseball stadium quickly going into the sky to change everything in the spring of 2028.

So right now the Aces, the Raiders, and the Knights all play within a half mile of each other on the south end of the strip, and the A’s are joining the fun in two years. Oh, my….

And to add to that, the NBA has approved a team for Vegas and it will play in T-Mobile to start with in a couple of years as well. Let’s hope the subway system is done by then. Got a hunch Vegas is going to need it.

Those of you who have fallen for the myth that Vegas is dying, uhhh, nope.

And the entire city is quickly moving toward solar and wind power and it is using less water now than it did in 1995.

Can you tell I like this city. The actual city, not so much the Strip or Fremont Street, but the city itself. An amazing place to live.

Picture of me Kris took in my seat at the game. I wear the distance sunglasses to help with the glare off the court.
