BURG Sports Network

"Welcome to Las Vegas. This is a special day, especially coming up that we're looking forward to for a long time. I've been in this town for 37 years, the last time we've been elected. We have the ability to displace in the United States in the world new things. I think uniquely. You'll see it this week. One of the things that was so good about this time is we deal with scale and this is very well. We do hotel rooms and 1000s when others are doing. We deal with distances of quarter miles and a half miles instead of many Miles. Miles half an hour to the east. We have airport economics in the west and have a beautiful new 60,000 seat stadium.
This talent is really built to go and do the job that we have great people to do as well. Great.
Thank you so much for you to tell us from your industry. It's a pleasure to serve with Maury as vice chair to host committee. On behalf of Mark Davis and the Las Vegas Raiders. We want to thank you all and welcome in Las Vegas. Well, I think your husband needs to see and we know it's going to be an incredible week. Anyway, again, remember, I wanted to definitely say to depart remember I was at the National Football League for your incredible collaborative partnership, Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority of Clark county in the state of Paris really read everyone should be working together to make sure this is going to be a week that are close again. Last but certainly not least, we have to take a debt of gratitude to be able to breathe and especially if you're going to Las Vegas to help us pull this off. In the Super Bowls committee CEO Sam Joffrey who's led an incredible team of 15 employees or even a small group as we put this on, and over 300 subject matter experts in every single area in Southern Nevada. So thank you so much,Sam, committee of your leadership and for your honesty putting us on thank you so much. You guys are great.

So as I'm proud to stand here today, on behalf of everyone in the National Football League, we could not be more excited to kick off Super Bowl 50 A week here in Las Vegas, the first ever school in Las Vegas. This is a big deal. And we're incredibly proud to kick off this week. As you know, the teams are on the ground. Both teams are here. They have settled in and we've got an incredible matchup, a match of two teams vying for this beautiful trophy right here. And one of the ahead this will be clearly the focus is on Sunday at Allegiant stadium, and that incredible stage that we have, but this is a week that is jam packed with accessible fan activities members report and words there. For fans who may not be able to be in Allegiant stadium on Sunday. This week is packed. And it starts tonight with Super Bowls to roll opening night fueled by our partner Gatorade out of Egypt stadium. We have not ever done a Super Bowl opening night in the school stadium. So the more than 20,000 fans will be in there tonight will be able to experience the Super Bowl fully dressed. You've seen the outside dresses to beautiful graphics and beautiful decor on there. But this will be man's coming in to experience the Super Bowl stadium and all its glory with all of the media. They're both participating teams, all the coaches a great night to set the tone for the week. And then after that, our simple theme park opens up right next door here within this convention center Super Bowl experience presented by our former Toyota and that is a theme park. An accessible way for fans of any age to come in and experience the NFL and be part of school week. So much review the trophy either the race will be there run the 14th kick the field goal meet players just an incredible environment for every single fan. We will also have Lunar New Year activations there this year to will coincides exactly the Lunar New Year so we've been able to the experience that is going to take place right here at the convention center. The events are two minutes a day and there are hundreds when we think about taste for the NFL Super Bowl soulful soulful celebration, NFL honors, just a litany of great events for people to be part of. You've probably seen a bit of the Superbowl takeover. Thanks to our partners here. This is becoming a truly Superbowl city. You see it on the side of Caesars Palace 65,000 square foot video projection every night there you see the way the spear has been transformed into a suitable wallet for official partners with their messages on their every evening taking over the LTE long strip and single message in that reference solution station. Some of the biggest hits if you err on the side of school stadium that we've ever done. This is clearly a sports town i'll be with that. But obviously it's entertainment town as well but nothing is more synonymous with Superbowl than an entertainment as well. So yeah, but music school at that time shadow washer is in the throes of full on rehearsals, including at the stadium that is headed to an incredible show on Sunday. A pregame that will have just some great special moments, the powerful voice of honor day singing that every voice and sing Post Malone singing America the Beautiful, iconic country legend Reba McIntyre singing our national lifestyle when supplying performing our official NFL tailgate, and on and off in terms of the entertainment elements and the way sports entertainment come to life in this town really unlike any other"
