“I’m supportive of both those ventures, but I’m absolutely opposed [to] … any attempt to rob the Las Vegas Convention Center of its desperately needed cash to build anything — whether it’s a stadium, or a launching pad to the Moon, or an amusement ride or any other boondoggle — when we need so desperately to put the money into the convention center.” — MGM Resorts International CEO Jim Murren on proposals to divert $780 million in public monies to build a 65,000-seat stadium behind the Strip.
