00:00Stop doom scrolling. We did it for you. Here's what you need to know with Amy and Sean on 1027 VGS.
00:07Okay. Sweeps are tough. Sweeps are tough. Yeah.
00:12Even if it's a five-game series, it's not easy.
00:14Sun has not set in the WNBA. Ace has got a rude awakening in Game 3.
00:19The final, 105-76. It was messy from the start. 15-point deficit to end the first.
00:25Chelsea Gray limited to 11 points. She was scoreless in the second half.
00:30At times, there was a couple times down the court, she was triple-teamed.
00:33Wow.
00:33Like, ridiculous. So they totally nullified her for the game.
00:37Aces got within six in the second half, but they weren't able to make up the deficit.
00:40Huge game for Connecticut's Alyssa Thomas.
00:43She had the first triple-double in the history of the WNBA final.
00:47Wow.
00:48Which is ridiculous.
00:49That's huge.
00:49Sun 4-0 this season in elimination games.
00:52Aces can steal the series and seal the series on Sunday in Connecticut.
00:57There's going to be a watch party at Water Street Plaza in Henderson.
01:00Kicks up at 1 p.m. Sunday, as does the game.
01:04Las Vegas Raiders, they've bought some property around Allegiant Stadium.
01:07Chances are, like, remember when, before Allegiant Stadium, before it was even a thing,
01:10it was just like a bunch of auto body shops.
01:12Yeah.
01:13Hey, we'll paint your cabinets.
01:14Like, that's what it was.
01:15Yeah.
01:15Now it's all, like, some of the most expensive real estate in town.
01:18I know.
01:19It's insane.
01:19Amazing.
01:20Yeah.
01:20You should have bought a parking lot there.
01:22You would have been very rich.
01:23The RJ reporting that the Raiders just bought 2.7 acres on Polaris, just west of the stadium,
01:28for over $16 million, which is about double what the land went for relatively recently.
01:35Team has plans for the property.
01:37Not sure what they are quite yet.
01:38Could be parking.
01:39Could be a potential hotel.
01:41Wow.
01:41Speaking of the Raiders, there was a small aircraft that had a crash landing on the road
01:46near Raiders Way in Volunteer Boulevard in Henderson, just outside the executive airport
01:49there.
01:50Luckily, both people in the plane escaped uninjured.
01:53Wow.
01:53Have you ever been in a, you know.
01:55A plane crash?
01:55No.
01:56Not a plane crash, but like a, oh, this is dicey situation.
02:00Like in a plane?
02:01Yeah.
02:01Like turbulence?
02:03Like bad turbulence.
02:04Yeah.
02:05I feel like when you go to Disney and back, it's always really, really bad.
02:08It's always super choppy.
02:08The wind shear from the mountains.
02:10Yeah, yeah.
02:10That's bananas.
02:12I don't know.
02:12There was one, there was one flight in particular.
02:14It was like, oh.
02:15Yeah.
02:15Oh, God.
02:16Yeah.
02:16Yeah.
02:16No, no fun.
02:17And then finally, Life is Beautiful this weekend.
02:20That's crazy.
02:20That snuck up on us.
02:21We're going to be there.
02:22Calvin Harris, Gorillaz, dozens and dozens of others.
02:24One of my favorite musicians, Mark Rebele, isn't going to be in town.
02:27Do you know Mark Rebele?
02:28I don't think so.
02:29You know, I have to hear, like, I don't know names or, you know, but if I hear, I'm like,
02:35oh, okay.
02:35He's a YouTube artist.
02:36Okay.
02:37Who has gone on to great success.
02:38He's fantastic.
02:39He's going to be there this weekend.
02:40He's closing out the night on one of the stages on Saturday night.
02:43I expect a lot of closures downtown, a lot of road closures.
02:46So just get ready for all that fun.
