I am actually excited about this stadium too, but not because of the Raiders. I think it would be more likely that I would travel to Vegas to see the Rams vs Raiders than to LA. Not hating LA, but there is just more Adulting possible in Vegas, and in closer proximity in Las Vegas....:sneaky:
I bet this stadium becomes a primary visiting NFL destination because of its location.

One thing I forgot to say is that I didn't visualize where the stadium would be located until this video. The Mandalay Bay looks to be the Hotel Casino of choice near the venue. I believe there are pro-boxing events held at the casino as well. I bet the Vegas strip gets really developed south of the new stadium, which I don't remember much being there casino-wise. McCarran International airport has to be very close on the east side of the new stadium, if not right next to it...

Close to UNLV if that helps.

I think there will be a ton of this.
If you were a mid west fan....or east coast....and wanted to road trip to a game, what is a better long weekend trip than Vegas?
Bears bs Raiders or Chiefs vs Raiders once it gets cold.....stadium will 60% road fans.

I hope they don't price the games there like everything else in Vegas. Cost have gotten out of control there and I fear going to a game there will be more of the same.

I saw it last year when I was there. The cabbies were really moaning that the traffic will be even more unbearable when it’s all up and running. Not enough parking apparently.

I think they should be just the Vegas Raiders as opposed to the Las Vegas Raiders....Sounds more Raider like and I too will be attending many games because Vegas is where my trophy bride of 26 years this September honeymooned and have gone back every couple of years.

Just rolled into LV. Stadium is right up on the 15. Didn’t realize how freaking close it is to the highway.
