Did Vegas Dodge a Bullet by Avoiding the FIFA World Cup?

from City Cast Las Vegas · host City Cast

The World Cup is here, but Las Vegas isn't one of the 11 host cities. At first glance that might seem like a missed opportunity, but the more you look at what FIFA actually demands from it's host cities, the more it looks like Vegas lucked out, by missing out on the World Cup. Jesse Merrick sits down with Creative Producer Jacob Solis to break down why Allegiant Stadium was never going to work for World Cup games, the jaw-dropping costs FIFA has stuck on host cities, and how Las Vegas locals can still get in on the World Cup action with watch parties happening around the valley.
