Mayor May File a Lawsuit Against the NFL For Banning Vegas Ads During Super Bowl

Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman may file a lawsuit against the National Football League. Las Vegas had planned to kick off its new $58-million ad campaign during the big game but the commissioner of the NFL says ads for Las Vegas cannot be run during the Super Bowl.

Now Goodman said today NFL is preventing the The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authorityfrom doing its job. Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman says, “They got more dysfunctional people associated with that league, murders, rapes, robberies all sorts of nonsense if my city was run like his league we’d be in real trouble here.”

According to Brian McCarthy with the NFL, “We prohibit our network partners from accepting any message that includes any reference to or mention of gambling or sports betting.”
