Quick story from my trip to Vegas. My son overheard some Allegiant Stadium staff talking, by the end of the Wigan vs Warrington game the Stadium had already sold more alcohol than they had ever sold before including all Raiders games and the Super Bowl and this with the stadium only two thirds full at best at this point. With pint cans of beer costing £15 they must have made a mint and I'm sure that they must have seen the day as a great success!
Yeah I heard that too whilst in the stadium

I set off in the morning. Someone at the warriors had told me 5k had been sold and although that was about 4 weeks ago it's probably not changed since. I can tell you by the amount of people I know who are going and everyone else on socials wigan are gonna be there in very good numbers.

Hardly a precise calculation but worth sharing.
I recently visited south Wales and whilst there I got talking to my taxi driver about 'rugby'. To his dismay, he was disappointed to tell me of how many lads down south wales were turning to league. I had to come across sympathetic but inside I was jumping for joy.

It's on Sarl, nuff said.
Seperatley though, the click bait s**t that kept popping up on my feeds from sarl really annoyed me, I finally blocked them and wish others would do the same. That site does more harm than good for rl.

So you've just won £80million on the euros. Obv you don't have work any more so you buy a rl club....
Which club do you buy or attempt to start from the ground and what do you do with the monies???

And sorry whilst I'm here, I don't wanna come across as negative as I really think this is a massive opportunity.
But in the 80's in the floodlight shield, (someone will correct me here) wigan banned the bbc from filming as it affected the crowd totals. I really do hope that playing potentially 7 days a week at the times the tv channels demand and therefore maybe leading to lower attendances don't have the adverse affect. Just saying that's all. But I cannot wait for next year, bring it ooonnnnn

Holy ######, you seen the carp on tv tonight. If this is the best they can put up against the ttg, we should really get some good viewing figures.

The corners of each stand haven't gone on general sale yet but if they do then capacity is 25,000.

Truly amazing watching this. Everyone in rl builds this love for the game that only happens in our sport, and he is just another person, but a person with a viice. Full credit to him the way he portraits himself, people will sit up and take notice. And all credit goes to the others in the doc who have the similar stories, love watching these too.

I've been before and loved it. So when wigan were going I had to be there. I booked with virgin flights and the hotel with booking.com as that came out cheapest. The club run tours were mega expensive. Additionally you can't fly direct from the north as it's out of season. And as above, the casinos are where the more expensive drinks and food are. There are enough cheaper places around. I didn't want to be walking around watching my money all the time but you defo gotta be savvy with where you go. The legendary stage door has bottles of bud for $1!!! 18dollars a can in the ground though, but i knew that beforehand so was prepared and budgeted for it. Overall though, if your a rl fan you gotta be there, it was a very surreal experience and sooo good
