As he addressed the National Football Foundation (NFF) Annual Awards Dinner at Bellagio in early December, it dawned on Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA) CEO Steve Hill the group might be useful in helping him attract the one major sporting event eluding the market.
In a span of 11 months, Las Vegas landed 2024’s Super Bowl LVIII, a three-year deal to host a Formula One race starting in November 2023 and the 2028 NCAA Final Four college basketball championship.
The one high-profile sporting event remaining on Hill’s wish list is the College Football National Championship Game. This year’s contest between Georgia and Texas Christian University will be played Monday at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.
