We have a place there bodering Summerlin and really it is any city USA once you get away from the Strip, and it is a great city. That being said, I doubt there are more then 10,000 locals who would consider purchasing season tickets, and of them, about half who could afford it.
yeah I like the Summerlin area (I actually stay there when I go to Vegas.. have a friend who lives there), little younger and more energetic feel to it..... I think if LV were to build a sports facility for the locals, it would be around there instead (of the stripe).
