Inside Allegiant Stadium, the Death Star-esque home of the Las Vegas Raiders that looms ominously over the streets of Vegas.
Everything about the Las Vegas skyline is weird. Not just the replicas of the Eiffel Tower and Statue of Liberty, or the fact that it’s literally in the middle of the desert, or the surreal new MSG Sphere that’s been a near-constant meme on social media over the last few weeks, but. That includes Allegiant Stadium, the football cathedral that opened three years ago next week, and which is often compared to a Roomba—because it does, in fact,like a giant Roomba.
The first thing you’re likely to notice when you enter Allegiant is a giant torch that houses an eternal flame in honor of Al Davis. This 85-foot-tall, 3D-printed torch is also the first thing your guide talks about when you take an official stadium tour.
Despite that otherworldly note, Allegiant doesn’t want you to forget where you are. Throughout the building you’ll find paintings and other artworks that reference not just Raiders history but Las Vegas, as well. Much of it is kitschy in a way that feels too much even for Vegas, like twin paintings of Elvis as a Raiders quarterback and Marilyn Monroe as a cheerleader.
