    I think with that new arena, Vegas will be able to host almost everything.

    Here's from the wiki page and might be the smoking gun:

    corect from bullfighting to concerts to fights to hockey.but they will have a problem selling it all the time as the mgm doesnt sellout and they papper the place all the time and this has an extra 6000 seats

    ps most if not all new arenas are multi purpose, infact they can make down to 16000 or 10k if they want it will just feel so large.if feel sorry for any one who buy the top level seats you are so high up

    The new arena will be a cash cow for MGM...especially if they get a major tenant.

    They will make more in concessions by half time, than all those restaurants combined. I can go to the ACC and blow through $2-3 hundred in concessions (no problem). Buy a souvenir or two, some beers/wine and some food. That's with comped tickets.

    At the new arena, concessions become revenue.
