NFL Draft to be held... on water
And players are going to use... boats? WTF is this shit?

Also, I know the perfect boat for all the Broncos draft picks to use. The SS Poseidon!

https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/2...ains-involved/

Quote:
The league released its preliminary plans for the 2020 NFL Draft on Tuesday, and although no one should ever go full Vegas, the NFL WILL be going full Vegas when the draft kicks off in April.

After attracting more than 600,00 visitors to Nashville for the 2019 draft, the NFL has one-upped itself with a plan that includes one stage being set up over water, players being chauffeured around on boats and one block of the strip being totally shut down to vehicle traffic over the course of the three-day event, which runs from April 23 thru 25.

Let's start with the craziest part of the NFL's plan: The red carpet stage, which will be set up over water in front of the Bellagio fountains. Any player who attends the draft and chooses to walk the red carpet will be taken by boat to the main stage.



Quote:
At the time, it was basically a large parking lot, but the NFL will obviously be making a lot of changes between now and April.

According to Peter O'Reilly, the NFL's executive vice president of club business and league events, it was important to feature as many iconic Vegas landmarks as possible in the draft set up.

"Embracing the city's personality and iconic locations enables us to create an event that captures the spirit and energy of our hosts," O'Reilly said. "We look forward to continuing to work with the Raiders, Las Vegas officials and the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority to create an unforgettable week-long celebration of football for our fans, the incoming prospects and partners and kick off the NFL's next 100 years."

To make this all work, Vegas will be doing something it almost never does: Closing off a portion of the famed strip. The part of the strip located in front of the Bellagio will be closed to vehicle traffic during all three days of the draft. Flamingo Road will also be closed between the strip and Koval Lane, which will allow fans to freely walk from the red carpet stage to the main event space near the forum.

hahah this is such an awesome idea. I hope they do it.

I think the main draft stage will be in Caesars though.

I wonder if each team will get to customize their boat? The Vikings’ pick could make for interesting TV.

The actual draft stage is across the street in front of Ceasars Palace.

I'm interested in how it'll turn out. I'll watch for sure. Vegas knows how to make an impression.

I would have thought Bolles would have no problem holding on to a flotation aid, holding is the one thing he does well.

this draft is going to take ****ing forever.

It's going to take forever to go get guys, stop the boat, let them on, and then go to the stage, and stop, and let them off.

This is dumb.

*well, I mean I guess the next team's on the clock immediately, so whatever.

But it's still dumb.
