But the thing is, there aren't a lot of normal people in Las Vegas. Not normal in the sense of an NHL fan with enough money to attend games. That means well paid white-collar professionals and successful tradespeople who have their own business. Vegas is mostly service workers, many of them poorly paid. The median income is below average for the U.S., and well below average for a major city. Is a bartender from the MGM Grand really going to splash out for NHL tickets? Or a limo driver? Or a payroll administrator at a casino?
