The Oakland Raiders are moving to Las Vegas. It’s a fact and it is happening. Nevermind what that means for the good and loyal fans of Oakland and forget about the record-setting $750 million in public funds that the Vegas government will be funneling to the Raiders for a stadium instead of schools. The unavoidable truth is that Sin City will now be represented in the NFL.
The Las Vegas Raiders have barely been official for a full day and already there are local Vegas vultures circling the wagon. However, we do have to give credit to one Dennis Hof for his quick thinking.
Via The Washington Post:
Dennis Hof, who owns several bordellos in the state and has been featured on HBO’s “Cathouse,” announced plans to open a Raiders-themed brothel timed to coincide with the opening of the team’s new stadium, a 65,000-seat facility that is scheduled to be ready for the 2020 season.
In a statement, Hof said his newest “sex palace will be called the ‘Pirate’s Booty Sports Brothel” and will be “the first brothel entirely dedicated to athletes and their die-hard fans.” Hof had previously announced that his two brothels located relatively near Las Vegas would “offer all Raiders players and staff 50 percent off sex parties,” but he said the new establishment would have a “VIP section … exclusively available to Raiders players and other high-profile athletes, and staffed with over 20 cheerleader-garbed working girls.”
Brothels in and of themselves are not a problem. But tempting the young twenty-somethings of the Raiders – most notably the star trio of Derek Carr, Amari Cooper, and Khalil Mack – with “50% off sex parties” can’t be good for you come game day. Remember what Mickey told Rocky?
We’re all for capitalism, but wouldn’t it be the most Raiders thing ever to see this young and talented nucleus seduced to the dark side in Vegas, ruining the franchise for a decade… C’mon, Hof, think of the team!
