Agreed! All Raiders home games will here but our hockey team isn't and people are angry. Especially cause Vegas is more of a hockey town than a football town.
Dude Nick is back to teasing solo music, saying October and happy birthday to me if he comes through lol.
RokofAges75:
That would be exciting! A Nick album in October, a Christmas album in November?!
I support all the mandates. The Trumpster teachers I work with are furious because, starting next week, they either have to be vaccinated or get tested weekly on their own time in order to continue working. The more inconvenient it is to be unvaccinated, the more people will cave and get it so they can continue to make money and spend it doing fun things... that, or they'll just move to Texas or Florida and at least make things better in the rest of the country. I do feel bad for the sane citizens of Texas and Florida though. It's easy to threaten to move - not as easy to actually uproot yourself and do it.

It's interesting that Vegas is a hockey town. Didn't the Knights not exist until a couple years ago? I remember we did an alumni event at an Avs/Knights game maybe 2018? (I googled and they formed in 2017, but they've also been like the Avs were back in 1995, so I guess I believe it. This is basically your chance to give me a rundown on the history of Vegas and hockey.) Funny story about the Knights, hubs and I were watching a game and he saw the marching band/showgirls and was really confused why they'd have that at a hockey game, since we only have the ice girls. Obviously, I was like "Um, it's Vegas. I would absolutely expect them to have a marching band/showgirls at their hockey games." lol
I'm stoked. Nick music October, Christmas album November, keep 'em coming, Boys!
Yeah, there's a couple of those at my school too. I think a week or two ago was when they had to have their first shots to meet the "two weeks past" part of the September 30th deadline for employment; weekly testing isn't even an option. And it's sad that "not being able to do stuff" will win out over "protecting the students you work with who are too young to get vaccinated."
mare:
I don’t understand how not every single school everywhere aren’t requiring vaccines. It should be a no brainer. Those and all healthcare professionals. There was a mandatory vaccine mandate for all the Bills games but now they’ve changed it to mandatory masks instead. Probably because so many stupid players are refusing to get vaccinated. Stupid people are the worst. All these people who refuse to get a vaccine should have to relocate to either Texas or Florida. Might as well contain the stupid and evil all in one place.

And watch in horror as everyone dies and real estate becomes really cheap. Time to get beachfront property! ;)
I wish it was more of a mix of both. The state's requiring "high risk employees" to get vaccinated (schools, health care, etcetera), but then there's all those people out there that are not working in schools or health care that aren't even required to wear masks, let alone get vaccinated. It's weird and a little infuriating.
My alma mater is doing "masks required inside, encouraged outside" at the stadium and I just don't get it. Thankfully, the section we sit in has always been socially distanced even in a good year, lol.
