Welcome Sports Fans
If you’re interested in sports, Las Vegas is the place to be. Here are highlights of sports in Las Vegas.
You can’t talk about sports in Las Vegas without first talking about UNLV. UNLV Football's home is Sam Boyd Stadium. They play in the Mountain West Conference, which includes BYU, Colorado State and Utah.
The UNLV Runnin’ Rebels basket-ball team plays an exciting brand of bas-ketball under head coach Lon Kruger. They play all of their home games at the luxurious Thomas and Mack Center.

The Arena Football League’s Las Vegas Gladiators don their armor from the end of Febuary to June in the Thomas & Mack Center.

Las Vegas is the undisputed boxing capital of the world. Major fights take place all the time at the larger hotels and more minor events take place at venues all over town.
The National Finals Rodeo is held every year before a sellout-crowd of 172,000 for 10 days in December at the Thomas and Mack Center. The world’s best cowboys and cowgirls compete for over $4 million dollars in prize money in this world championship of professional rodeos. For more information call 739-FANS.
