Half of them already live here I think. You cant drive hundred yards without seeing a bumper sticker or a hat. I think it would work great here.Those crazy & dangerous Raider fans would fit right in w/ Sin City.

It works from a regional stand point, and if they can figure out a way to finance it, I think it would be a home run. Plus, UNLV owns the land, and it would serve as a stadium for the Rebels too. Its right across from the Thomas and Mack.Yeah I think Vegas is ready for a pro sports team. And really is there a better team in America to move to the desert than the Raiders?

I would imagine that many of the current season ticket holders would still be with it, and there would be some here that would be ready to sign up. Shit, I would buy some Raider shit and support the team too. Maybe I could get a half Raider half Bears jersey.
Just trying to see where the fans of the team are.
MileHigh64, all RAIDER Fans want the RAIDERS to stay in Oakland, all of us.. The RAIDERS and the City of Oakland have been going back and forth on the stadium issue for what, 30 Years or so and they just can't hammer it out..If they move to Vegas, opposing team's fans will fill the stadium, IMO. Would dramatically hurt home field advantage. The Raiders should continue to find a way to stay in Oakland if they can. Although, the Las Vegas Raiders has a somewhat fitting feel to it.

Been to Vegas many times, and it's true Vegas is a RAIDER City already!! Not mention all the fans from the surrounding states and the World flocking to Vegas for a weekend of fun and watch the RAIDERS play ball..I don't think you realize how many raider fans live here
cd, i have people that lived in Henderson so i was out there my share of times.. And Vegas is a RAIDER City dude..Actually in Las Vegas the biggest fan base is the Cowboys. There is a reason they are called America's Team as they do have fans everywhere and it does seem the cities that do not have an NFL team seem to support the Cowboys more so than any other team. The next biggest is that of the 49ers. From what I can tell from the research that has been done the Raiders come in at a distant 3rd in Vegas.
Next is going to be will the NFL allow a Casino owning person actually have a big time vested interest in an NFL team? Right now it sounds like there is major push back against that happening because of the fear of the betting side of things. Definitely a lot of obstacles to get over if this were to actually happen.
Well my answer is based on actual data that they have done. Yours is based on your eyes. I think I'll stick with the actual data that says the Cowboys dominate Las Vegas. Also Vegas is a transient city so people coming from all over not just California. San Diego is the same and they have trouble getting locals to support the team. I don't think Vegas would have trouble selling tickets but I don't think it would be going to Raiders fans. A ton of opposing fans would love to visit Vegas.cd, i have people that lived in Henderson so i was out there my share of times.. And Vegas is a RAIDER City dude..
Is there Cowboys fans, sure there is but from what i seen with my OWN eyes its all RAIDERS for the most part..
Vegas is right down the street from Cali, home of the RAIDER Fan base!!
Calling the Cowboys America's team is stupid btw!! And if we move there it's OUR City!! Vegas is a World City just like the RAIDERS are a World team.. Could you imagine Vegas marketing the RAIDERS?? While playing in a World class Stadium!! The Vegas elite know how to do it right.. They NEVER lose!!
I don't care what some research with a small sample size has to say.. cd i am the research!!Well my answer is based on actual data that they have done. Yours is based on your eyes.

That's cuz all the RAIDER Fans flocking to Vegas for a weekend of fun.. If you think it's bad now wait till they put the RAIDERS there, if they do move there that is..All i know is every fucking weekend, traffic on I-15 between Cali and Vegas is one giant clusterfuck.

And please don't EVER compare Bolt fans to the RAIDERNATION one of the biggest fan base in the World!!
Shoot dude, i live in Idaho and you would not believe how many RAIDER Fans are up here, a lot of them..
Bolt fans up here are like Unicorns you never see them.. So when people try to compare Fan bases is just stupid!!
