Oh, and please don't talk about poker and say that LA and Vegas are on the same level... Or gambling at all, for that matter. You look ridiculous.
Hey, next time you're down at the casino, can you place a bet for me for the Super Bowl -- Oh that's right... You can't.
Do you still want to stick with the "what you can do in Vegas, you can do in LA" story?
Disney is just a fraction of what we have. i know it seems incredible, but its true, not every city on earth is dependent on one aspect like Vegas is with casinos.

gambling at the bellagio = gambling at the commerce casino or morongo, same sh*t

i will stick with that, try to keep up, LA hilariously wrecks Vegas

Like I said before... NO NFL team will play in that DUMP of a stadium you call the coliseum. No NFL even wants to temporarily play there while a stadium gets built lol.
You know your stadium blows when the O.Co Coliseum and Qualcomm are better options.
the rams and raiders are a sure bet, why dont you go and place a bet in the casino for me will ya?

the coliseum the stadium that's hosted 2 Olympics and has hosted world cup games? the host to the only successful Olympics in history? the stadium that holds 90,000+ fans?

what does Vegas have to offer? the MGM garden arena, now that is a piece of sh*t.

just to show you how ill informed you are, the Coliseum wont allow the Raiders to even temporarily play there, a stadium of its caliber doesn't want idiot fans messing it up, that is why.

I hate to step in, but LA didn't host the only successful games ever, just the most successful games ever. Ok continue on with the argument

All you ever blab about is the Vegas casinos... You are so out of touch it is pitiful.
Might want to do a little bit of research on the Las Vegas Convention Authority and then come back to me. You clearly have no idea what goes on here.
Like I posted earlier, LV's visitor numbers are equal (and in some cases greater) to what LA does. Yet we are 1/9th the size.
If your city is so great, why does it suck so badly at attracting people to it, for it's size??

Rams and Raiders, eh?
Well... There were three teams in the running. San Diego already confirmed they are coming back to Qualcomm next season... And the Raiders are extending their lease at O.Co... Rams aren't going anywhere next year... So you clearly have no idea what you're talking about.

Do they still have to put up the temporary, neighborhood park-like bleachers up against the end zone because the stands are five miles away?
That's cute.

Just FYI. Its not an opinion. Its a legit fact. LA is the ent. Cap. Of the world. I can tell there are a lot of biased people on here . Its LA without question in film, modeling, and music industry. Maybe NYC second. And I love the perfect weather and the diversity of the west. I like Chicago to BTW.

Haha funny considering NO sports team at all is even considering moving to vegas lmao. We have 6 pro sports teams .... How many does vegas have again????
What's "cute" is you think puny little Vegas stands up to a city of LAs caliber. Lmao. The entertainment capital of the world and an industry that can't be beat. And hosted 2 Olympics.how many has Vegas had again??? you are either delusional or jealous ... Can't really tell. Vegas is not even rated in the top 84 cities in the world according to at.Kearney. .lmao. LA is in like the top 5. Please LA stomps so hard on Vegas its not even funny. Vegas is no match. I feel awkward even debating this.....

Los Angeles makes "entertainment" for the rest the of the world aka Music/Movies/ aka The Junk you watch on TV or at the theatre.

As far as a city that actually entertains their visitors that has nightlife, live events and musicians etc. than Vegas.
