- John Fisher sat beside Circa co-owner Derek Stevens for Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final on Saturday and celebrated the Golden Knights’ double-overtime winner from prime seats behind the goal.
- Fisher told the Review-Journal he left the game excited about Las Vegas fans and said their passion bodes well for the Athletics as they prepare to relocate to Las Vegas for the 2028 season.
- Stevens said he and Fisher are “working on a few things” and suggested a partnership or promotional deal could be announced in the coming months.
- The A’s are using a 2026 homestand, community appearances and local operations—including an office, a ballpark experience center and about 60 Southern Nevada employees—to cultivate a fan base while stadium construction continues on the Strip.
- Resorts such as Circa have activated hospitality promotions by displaying the Stanley Cup and hosting events, which reflects a broader shift since sports betting expanded that has helped Las Vegas grow into a major-league sports market and could bring more summer jobs and tourism during the A’s 81 home dates.
