duma Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I think the 3 major sports will start changing their attitudes about Vegas after the NBA All-Star Weekend there is a shining success. really? all i have read are bad things about the all star weekend in vegas. i cannot see a team coming to vegas any time soon.http://sports.aol.com/whitlock/_a/mayhem-m...220103009990001NBA All-Star Weekend in Vegas was an unmitigated failure.Vegas police were simply overwhelmed along The Strip. They were there solely for decoration and to discourage major crimes. Beyond that, they minded their own business.http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story...=simmons/070220So many gangbangers and troublemakers flooded the Strip that late-night gamblers willingly chose 75-minute cab lines over a 15-minute walk to their next casino. So many wild stories floated around about shootings, robberies and everything else that we never knew what to believe; still, every tale seemed reasonable because there were no cops to be seen. On Saturday night, one of my friends even joked that the city might have to declare martial law, only none of us laughed because we didn't realize he was joking.
