When Super Bowl Sunday rolls around each year — whether it’s in Miami, New Orleans, Los Angeles or Minneapolis — Las Vegas still draws the crowds. Football fans make a long weekend out of the event, they see some shows, eat some food, place some bets, lose some bets, and settle in front of one of countless TV screens to watch the game. Come this Sunday, for the first time ever, that Big Game will be in Sin City itself. With one of the biggest shows on Earth now in its backyard, the city of spectacle and excess is hoping to hit it big. Las Vegas says it expects a “conservative” economic impact of around $600 million, and is looking to cement itself in the rotation for future Super Bowls and other major sports events.
