The F1 straight is the best venue to hold a non-NHL outdoor game in the valley, and it’s not even close.
The straight stands are the last to be taken down, so the timing would work.
LVBP and Cash both would have terrible sight lines for a potential outdoor game, whereas the stands for F1 are steep enough for great views everywhere. Plus, the views of the strip are immaculate- and with the standing room on top of the stands and paddock, we’d be able to fit more people than either stadium.

I was pissed that the Kraken got to host the Winter Classic. VGK should have been the host and the best spot for the rink location should have been held at the location of the Route 91 shooting.
The NHL also gets the Vegas Strip in the background.
