MGM Resorts to partner with arena builder on 20,000-seat Strip project.

Why the hell would they want to build a 20,000 arena behind the NYNY casino??

MGM New Arena

Maybe because they feel they are getting a NBA franchise. Could be.

They at one time talked about building an arena near the Sands convention center.

I think the NBA All Star weekend a couple of years ago soured some people on the project.

Maybe they should finish the one next to Riviera first.

I would love for someone I hate to try and get an NBA franchise to succeed in Vegas.

I think there was a problem during the All Star game because it was a one time thing. If the NBA played there regularly, there wouldn't be a problem.

Build it and they will come?
