Twitter reacts to 2020 NFL Draft being held in Las Vegas
There was once a time when the NFL wanted to give the impression that it was staying as far from Las Vegas as possible, but things have changed in a hurry now that one of the league’s franchises is moving to Sin City.
The NFL announced on Wednesday that NFL owners have voted to hold the 2020 NFL Draft in Las Vegas. Events will be held at multiple locations around the Vegas strip.
NFL exec Peter O’Reilly says the draft will tape place at multiple locations on and around the Vegas strip. So that should be pretty epic.

With the 2019 NFL Draft having been awarded to Nashville, we’re sensing a bit of a theme here. As you might expect, it sounds like football fans are excited about it.
Nashville in 2019, Vegas in 2020. Have never attended the draft, but it might be time… https://t.co/o7jEILg9g9

The latest report about where the Raiders will play next season was another reminder of how close we are to having NFL football in Vegas. With owners choosing Sin City for the draft, that feels even more real.
