Demand More NCAA Games in Las Vegas


Demand More NCAA Games in Las Vegas
The Issue
I am a passionate resident of Las Vegas, with a deep love for the NCAA. My life and those of many others in our lively city are intertwined with the exhilarating energy that NCAA games bring. My need for more NCAA games in our city is profound and personal. There is no replacement for the thrill of the game, the cheer of the crowd, and the community connection we feel in those moments.
Las Vegas, the Entertainment Capital of the World, renowned for its headlining shows and events, is a perfect venue for more NCAA games. We have the monumental arenas, capable of accommodating huge crowds, and an enthusiastic fan base ready to fill them. But instead of an abounding number of NCAA games, we are given a sparse handful.
The lack of NCAA games not only impacts the fans but also has economic implications for our city. Hosting more NCAA games could bring a significant boost to our local economy. A study by the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA) revealed that sporting events in Las Vegas in 2019 generated over $400 million in economic impact. Furthermore, each NCAA game potentially brings substantial tourism revenue which supports local businesses, and creates job opportunities.
Additionally, educational institutions in Las Vegas also stand to benefit substantially from more NCAA games. Schools often see a surge in their enrollment numbers following successful sports seasons, a phenomenon described by Harvard Business School as the "Flutie Effect".
This is the time for more NCAA games in Las Vegas. It's a win-win situation - a victory for NCAA fans and a triumph for the economic and educational scenery of Las Vegas.
Let's make our voices heard. Let's make it happen. Please sign this petition so that we can bring the energy, passion, and economic benefits of more NCAA games to Las Vegas.
