Vegas Invasion of Cyclones!

[NetflixAndClone]

Just gotta say it was amazing to follow along on social media and see so many clones on TV. The announcers kept saying how many clones were in the building and even some UNLV media members were pointed out how much it felt like a cyclone home game.

Just goes to show you, if you can build it at Iowa State, the fanbase definitely shows why it is one of top ones in the nations.

Allegiant Stadium holds about the same as Jack Trice yet it seems way more massive. Is it because of the roof, or because every seat had an actual seat w/ back, but i would have thought it held like 90,000 based on the size. When my wife said it's the same as Trice it blew my mind.

Probably a difference of 1960s sized seats at JT and 2020 size seats in allegiant. I'm pretty average size and jack trice seats sometimes feel tight

It felt really tall to me. Field level is basically parking lot level.

Allegiant stadium was fantastic. Walking back across the bridge, looking over the skyline of the Vegas strip, surrounded by Cyclone fans, was amazing. Just a top notch experience all around

Whoops, checked out, looks like the Mini-Bar wins again.

I can tell ya the club section was the craziest set up I have ever seen the food and drink were top
notch, the stadium itself from the inside was a slight notch below Jerry’s World

We left a stupid number of 1/4 full liquor bottles in our room. I'm sure that's a daily occurrence, but I'm wondering what happens to it? Seems a shame for it to be thrown out.

We are leaving a $12 styrofoam cooler behind. Guess it’s cheaper then moving something around in the wet bar and getting a $50 charge on it.

13 hour nap yesterday and Im ready to do it all over again this weekend, who wants to go with me?

 

[Remo Gaggi]

Remo, I'm concerned that your pics are sideways - were you laying on the ground after a few too many beverages?

Too many drinks.

Did anyone hear any final estimated numbers on how many cyclones were in attendance. My group came up with a ballpark of 28,000 cyclones vs 3,000 Rebels. Maybe 31,000 total attendance. It seemed like at least 9:1 ratio.

For reference point - UNLVs first game vs EWU had 21,970 announced attendance

A sports business journalist is Vegas said 28k of 35k total. 4 to 1. Seems about right to me.

My mini bar cost was $20 for shooter of absolut and $15.75 for a liter of Fiji.

You spent time in your room? Awake?

We checked out Area 15 Saturday during the day. I highly, highly recommend it.

We spent time at the Oddwood bar and then went to Omega Mart, and I can say that it was one of the strangest things I've experienced.
It's a massive art exhibit. The front part looks like a supermarket, but with bizarre products. You're supposed to be a new employee, and turn you loose. There are all kinds of hidden doors and passageways that you can find, that lead you to the back offices of the store. It's all interactive, so if you see a phone on someone's desk, you can pick it up, and someone will talk to you about weird conspiracy theories and joining the resistance. There's a whole mystery you can unravel, about how the store is really a front for an alien invasion. If you keep diving deeper into the back offices, you can get access to this massive alien compound. I can't stress how big the place is. You could probably spend all day there and not find every room. And most of the rooms have secret entrances/exits that aren't obvious, and require that you get on your hands and knees to crawl through.
And yes, there was a dispensary nearby. Why do you ask?

Sounds very cool. How far did you make it?

I got promoted to middle management, and am now a secret keeper. That's all I can really say.

I was in the club section. It was notable that the section right on the 50 was nearly completely empty. Assuming their biggest donors chose not to sell them but then also didnt attend. Then the sections on the 40s were full of cyclones. The club was almost entirely Cyclones fans on the Cyclones side. It was amazing

I always flip thru those hotel cost books/city magazines while the Mrs showers.
Almost went to a steakhouse at the Wynn based upon an article but it was full.
