Why would you have a special Battle Born football helmet and then put “1874” on it?  We were founded in 1864.

Feel free to put 1970 on your helmets.

He means Nevada, the state, was founded in 1864. Suddenly, he's interested in being part of the rest of the state.

I have no interest in being part of the rest of the state.  I was just referencing that Las Vegas is part of Nevada.  You all are just mooches off Southern Nevada.

Where do you think Reno got the money to add 1,000,000 square feet of buildings to their campus?

I mean, you could read the annual report to answer your own question but it won't support your thesis.

Washoe County is a net tax exporter.

Do you think that you paid state income tax to fund it or something? Or any tax for that matter?

Soon we could be adding Storey County if the Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center keeps expanding and welcoming in new businesses.

Did you know when Nevada entered the Union in 1864, what is now Clark County was in the Arizona territory..The area was added to Nevada after the Civil War was over.  The Arizona Territory was considered a confederate sympathizer and were stripped of that part of their land as punishment.  There are numerous reasons why you are called the Rebels..

It's not a coincidence that back in the day, Las Vegas was known as "The Mississippi of the West". Blacks weren't allowed in casino's unless there was a special circumstance. 

Nevada was the 1st football team in the country to make a stand on player racism. They cancelled a game with Miss. St. when they refused to let both of their black players from playing the game there (Miss St). Later, there were others. Shortly after that we were to play @ Tulsa and Tulsa caved and let them play. 

Fresno St. dealt with it with a compromise. Their black players were benched for the road game, but were allowed to play against their racist opponent at home in the return game. 

To be fair, the casinos in Reno weren't much different than Vegas regarding the banning of blacks.

I’m fully aware of that.
