| Whoa. $800 million. I have to think that it will be more of a general use venue than a stadium just for UNLV. |

| I think it will be general use. If you look at the photo gallery it has pictures of what it would look like with different venus types. (soccer, b-ball, etc)
Congrats to them if they can get this approved and built. |

| They should move the Jaguars or another unsuccessful NFL franchise in there. Then offer deals on trips to Vegas with ticket purchases. That would truly be America's team. |
