  Dayna Roselli: It's Dana Roselli along with Sean McAllister.

  Dayna Roselli: And boy, it's day two of uh Super Bowl Watch.
• 0:16
  Dayna Roselli: And I'm tired already, Sean.
• 0:19
  Sean McAllister: I mean, it's been a lot of activity, and it's only it's only day two.
• 0:23
  Sean McAllister: It's only Tuesday.
• 0:24
  Dayna Roselli: But so much fun, right?
• 0:26
  Dayna Roselli: We have been, I feel like I've been learning so much new stuff too.
• 0:29
  Dayna Roselli: I always listen, we know Vegas like the back of our hand, but I love learning new things, especially being kind of like a newsy at heart, you know?
• 0:36
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, well, and I think this is different from just doing Vegas.
• 0:40
  Sean McAllister: This is doing Vegas when the NFL is running the show.
• 0:44
  Dayna Roselli: Exactly.
• 0:45
  Sean McAllister: And man, do they run a top-notch operation?
• 0:50
  Dayna Roselli: We've been so impressed at the organization, how smooth it is, the security, all of it.
• 0:59
  Dayna Roselli: All of it.
• 0:59
  Dayna Roselli: Like we are always like, whoa, you know, it's like everywhere we go, there's never really a delay.
• 1:06
  Dayna Roselli: It's everything is in order.
• 1:08
  Dayna Roselli: Like there may be a lot of people, and there's tons of media.
• 1:11
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, people are speaking all different languages, there's people from all over the world.
• 1:14
  Dayna Roselli: For sure.
• 1:15
  Dayna Roselli: But the way it moves along and the way they give you direction and the security, it's just it's incredible.
• 1:22
  Dayna Roselli: I can't even explain how our mind is just blown over this whole thing.
• 1:29
  Dayna Roselli: But the police dogs, the, you know, they they thought I had a little metal in my ankles today, but it was the zippers on my pants.
• 1:35
  Sean McAllister: Oh my gosh.
• 1:36
  Sean McAllister: So no, I'm not, I don't have bionic ankles.
• 1:39
  Dayna Roselli: No, but I got stopped.
• 1:40
  Dayna Roselli: So and I like it.
• 1:41
  Dayna Roselli: I like them checking me.
• 1:42
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, we've been um really blown away.
• 1:44
  Dayna Roselli: We went to the Kansas City uh team headquarters today at Lake Las Vegas.
• 1:48
  Dayna Roselli: They are staying at the West End and they had their uh team press conference.
• 1:53
  Dayna Roselli: And this was the one press conference where a lot of the key players are gonna be at.
• 1:58
  Dayna Roselli: There's gonna be other team press conferences throughout the week, but we wanted to make sure to get to this one because that's where you know the quarterback is guaranteed to be and and all that thing.
• 2:06
  Dayna Roselli: And then they get into their they get into game day mode.
• 2:09
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 2:09
  Sean McAllister: And then later in the day, uh the San Francisco 49ers were doing the same thing at their Lake Las Vegas hotel.
• 2:18
  Sean McAllister: Um, we're not being one-sided, no, but um, we went out to the Kansas City news conference because it was the first lineup in the day.
• 2:27
  Sean McAllister: Exactly.
• 2:27
  Sean McAllister: And then we had to get some other things done in the afternoon, so we couldn't stay for the 49ers.
• 2:32
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, but listen, they're getting lots of attention because as we noted, actually, no, we didn't note this yesterday because we haven't talked about opening night yet.
• 2:38
  Dayna Roselli: We were at opening night at the stadium, and let me tell you, the 49ers fans were there in full force because you could hear the difference.
• 2:47
  Dayna Roselli: And um, you know, I think because it's in closer proximity.
• 2:52
  Sean McAllister: And I know that there are a ton of 49ers fans who already live here in Las Vegas, so it wasn't even necessarily that uh people have uh arrived early for the game.
• 3:04
  Sean McAllister: I think it's just a huge Las Vegas fan base for the 49ers.
• 3:10
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, I think so too.
• 3:12
  Dayna Roselli: I think so too.
• 3:12
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, it's hard to tell the difference because everyone's in all red because both teams have red.
• 3:16
  Sean McAllister: So when you hear the cheers and the boos, uh well, yeah, it was definitely overwhelmingly a 49ers crowd at Super Bowl opening night.
• 3:26
  Dayna Roselli: And one thing you wanted to mention, just because we're talking a little bit about the security and organization, uh, something you saw today.
• 3:32
  Dayna Roselli: If people are out and about on the strip, there's gonna be some some rules in place about not carrying uh bags, right?
• 3:40
  Dayna Roselli: Something like that that you saw, and I was like, okay, yeah, let's get that in, but I didn't read it.
• 3:44
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, so it was essentially um the Venetian posted uh some security alerts on their uh website and it outlined uh the things that uh normally you would expect one of these things to outline what you can and can't bring on property.
• 4:04
  Sean McAllister: Um, but this one specifically says um to ensure safety and security for all, items such as strollers, backpacks, and glassware will be prohibited on Las Vegas Boulevard during big game weekend.
• 4:19
  Sean McAllister: Um that's the exact uh verbiage of it.
• 4:21
  Sean McAllister: So that's making it sound like it's much more of a widespread uh rule than just on property.
• 4:28
  Sean McAllister: The Venetian is just letting its customers know uh know about this.
• 4:32
  Sean McAllister: Uh it says additionally, only the following types of bags will be permitted on Las Vegas Boulevard during big game weekend.
• 4:40
  Sean McAllister: So this is for everybody walking on Las Vegas Boulevard.
• 4:43
  Sean McAllister: Uh clear tote bags or backpacks, not to exceed uh 12 inches by six inches by twelve inches.
• 4:51
  Sean McAllister: Um a diaper bag is permitted if you have a baby with you.
• 4:56
  Dayna Roselli: Okay.
• 4:56
  Dayna Roselli: Um I can't bring my my Louis Vuitton diaper bag that I bought, even though I don't have a kid.
• 5:02
  Sean McAllister: No, you need to have a child in hand in order to carry a diaper bag.
• 5:07
  Sean McAllister: Got it, regardless of the brand.
• 5:09
  Sean McAllister: Uh a small handbag is allowed if it's smaller than four and a half inches by six and a half inches, and a fanny pack uh no more than four and a half inches by six and a half inches.
• 5:21
  Sean McAllister: Uh all bags are also subject to search.
• 5:25
  Sean McAllister: So, I mean, this just goes in line with all of the security measures that we've already seen in place.
• 5:32
  Sean McAllister: Um law enforcement is not taking this lightly at all.
• 5:37
  Sean McAllister: They're making sure that everyone coming to Las Vegas is going to be safe and have a good time.
• 5:42
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 5:42
  Dayna Roselli: We actually are going to a media party tonight, and we got uh hosted by the Super Bowl committee, and we got some rules for that, and it sounds like it's actually that, what you just read.
• 5:50
  unknown: Okay.
• 5:51
  Dayna Roselli: It was like Fanny Pack and Small Clutch allowed, you know, you know, uh they could search that kind of thing.
• 5:56
  Dayna Roselli: So I mean, um, yeah, that definitely seems like it's it's across the board.
• 6:00
  Dayna Roselli: It sounds like a New Year's Eve, but you know, but a full weekend.
• 6:03
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, exactly.
• 6:05
  Sean McAllister: So just be be prepared and be aware that uh these things are in place.
• 6:10
  Dayna Roselli: We had a moment this morning.
• 6:11
  Dayna Roselli: We woke up and uh TMZ was texting me saying they wanted me on.
• 6:15
  Dayna Roselli: And, you know, we had plans to go out to Lake Las Vegas.
• 6:17
  Dayna Roselli: I don't even know how we made this all happen.
• 6:19
  Dayna Roselli: We were supposed to do it in the studio, and then we're like, no, we need to get on the road.
• 6:22
  Dayna Roselli: And then we like got to the media press room and we were at the Kansas City Chiefs press conference, and you set up a camera in the hallway, and you know, threw my IFB in and we're on with uh Charles and Harvey Levin on DMZ.
• 6:38
  Dayna Roselli: That was a good six-minute segment.
• 6:39
  Dayna Roselli: I was nervous because I thought, oh gosh, what celeb gossip are they gonna throw at me or want to know?
• 6:44
  Dayna Roselli: But I was prepared and um I think it went over really well.
• 6:47
  Dayna Roselli: We do know a lot, and we don't realize like living here, working here, as we always say, you know, we're your Vegas insiders, but we really are.
• 6:53
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 6:54
  Sean McAllister: They seemed pleased.
• 6:55
  Sean McAllister: They were very pleased.
• 6:56
  Sean McAllister: And I I think you knocked Harvey's socks off a couple times with the prices that you were throwing out.
• 7:02
  Sean McAllister: Um, and this is some information that um is new as of today, as of recording on Tuesday.
• 7:10
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, I uh, you know, did a little bit of extra research as we were heading out to Lake Las Vegas, called a couple of my contacts and things like that.
• 7:17
  Dayna Roselli: Um and the numbers are pretty okay.
• 7:21
  Dayna Roselli: First of all, Wynn's having uh um across from Wynn, the H wood group is throwing this huge party, which I kind of knew about and we kind of saw it starting to get built out, but um, and this is on the 9th, February 9th.
• 7:32
  Dayna Roselli: They're doing um concert with David Getta and also the future and stage table starting about 45,100,000.
• 7:41
  Sean McAllister: So that's and this is for a party.
• 7:43
  Sean McAllister: This isn't this isn't for for the game.
• 7:46
  Dayna Roselli: Nope.
• 7:46
  Dayna Roselli: This is 9 p.m.
• 7:47
  Dayna Roselli: to 1 a.m.
• 7:48
  Dayna Roselli: on Friday.
• 7:49
  Dayna Roselli: Wow.
• 7:49
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, so it's the H Wood group and Taco Bell presents.
• 7:52
  Sean McAllister: And by the way, this tent that they're building out looks, it does not look like a tent.
• 7:57
  Sean McAllister: It looks like a big airplane hanger.
• 7:58
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, a big domed airplane hangar.
• 8:01
  Dayna Roselli: It does.
• 8:01
  Dayna Roselli: And a lot of times when they do things at the Las Vegas events center, I'm always I always tell you, I'm blown away.
• 8:06
  Dayna Roselli: It's like a full-on structure.
• 8:07
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 8:08
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 8:08
  Dayna Roselli: Um, Jack Harlow's doing the same thing the next night.
• 8:11
  Dayna Roselli: So that'll be the 10th.
• 8:12
  Dayna Roselli: Um, he's really blown up right now.
• 8:15
  Dayna Roselli: And again, I mean, that's gonna be a lot of fun.
• 8:18
  Dayna Roselli: Then XS Night Club is doing its own thing.
• 8:20
  Dayna Roselli: You know, it's always popular.
• 8:21
  Dayna Roselli: They're doing Shaq's fun house there.
• 8:23
  Dayna Roselli: Uh Shaq will be DJing.
• 8:25
  Dayna Roselli: Little Wayne will be DJ Diesel.
• 8:27
  Dayna Roselli: Yep, DJ Diesel, little Wayne Diplo.
• 8:30
  Dayna Roselli: And then uh Sunday after the game, this isn't out there and open to the public, but we're hearing Dr.
• 8:35
  Dayna Roselli: Dre and Snoop Dogg are uh doing something at the club as well, like nine to one.
• 8:40
  Dayna Roselli: It's invite only.
• 8:42
  Dayna Roselli: Um they're gonna honor Usher there.
• 8:43
  Dayna Roselli: Apparently, Usher will probably show up.
• 8:46
  Dayna Roselli: He'll be the guest of honor.
• 8:47
  Dayna Roselli: Um, and they are doing some private invites and selling some tables in there still, but it's not really uh open to the public type thing.
• 8:56
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 8:56
  Sean McAllister: And then uh we got some new information about the really high roller tables inside Allegiant Stadium, too.
• 9:05
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, we heard there's a few left, uh, probably a couple now over at uh Wynn Field Club, and they started at 1.5 million.
• 9:14
  Dayna Roselli: Man, and uh steep.
• 9:16
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, gone down to about 650,000 because it depends on where the spot is, you know.
• 9:21
  Dayna Roselli: So the look seems like the 1.5s are gone.
• 9:23
  Dayna Roselli: Um, but there's a few 650,000 uh tables left.
• 9:27
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, so if you're interested, uh the VIP host over there, uh Jay Sean White is booking just a couple, probably a couple by now, at the time that this podcast drops.
• 9:37
  Dayna Roselli: But you know, you can fit a bunch of people there in a booth, and the Winfield Club is really great.
• 9:42
  Dayna Roselli: You're right there in front of all the action, and so that will be a lot of fun.
• 9:46
  Dayna Roselli: It includes a Super Bowl ticket, you know.
• 9:48
  Sean McAllister: So there's a perk.
• 9:51
  Sean McAllister: Well, I would hope it, I would hope it includes a ticket if you're if you're paying that much.
• 9:56
  Sean McAllister: Jeez.
• 9:57
  Dayna Roselli: I know.
• 9:57
  Dayna Roselli: So we're hearing that also, um, you know, getting some word that uh that you know, tr Travis Kelsey, obviously, very popular player, and you know, with the whole Taylor Swift thing, it's made him more popular, almost a little nauseating, like the amount of questions that he gets.
• 10:11
  Dayna Roselli: We have been at two press events with him for two days, and I'll admit it's a good one.
• 10:15
  Sean McAllister: It's non-stop questions though about Taylor.
• 10:19
  Dayna Roselli: Non-stop, right?
• 10:21
  Dayna Roselli: But I did find out a fun scoop.
• 10:23
  Dayna Roselli: Um, so that apparently if tr if Taylor is coming in, um, you know, usually the team, if they win the Super Bowl, will go out and celebrate.
• 10:31
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 10:31
  Dayna Roselli: And um, even Travis was talking about he remembers hitting up Excess Nightclub last time.
• 10:36
  Dayna Roselli: Yep.
• 10:36
  Dayna Roselli: Even teams that win in win the Super Bowls in another city, they come to Vegas.
• 10:40
  Sean McAllister: For sure they do.
• 10:41
  Dayna Roselli: Sometimes on We love it.
• 10:42
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 10:43
  Dayna Roselli: So he was saying was telling me that, you know, apparently, you know, if Taylor's there, she probably won't want to hit the nightclub or be out in public.
• 10:51
  Dayna Roselli: And we're hearing that they possibly rented a home in the Lake Las Vegas area because that's where the team is staying.
• 10:59
  Dayna Roselli: And so possibly could be more of like a house party type thing that's being tossed around.
• 11:04
  Dayna Roselli: So we'll see.
• 11:05
  Dayna Roselli: I don't know.
• 11:06
  Dayna Roselli: Um, and maybe it'll just be a group of them, maybe it'll be the whole team.
• 11:09
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, I don't know how that will work.
• 11:10
  Dayna Roselli: Maybe it'll just be those two, but I'm sure he's gonna want to go out and celebrate in some fashion.
• 11:15
  Dayna Roselli: So I wonder if it could be that.
• 11:17
  Dayna Roselli: Also heard the 40 49ers, a few of the key players that were out clubbing last night.
• 11:22
  Sean McAllister: Oh, and being recognized by fans.
• 11:25
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 11:25
  Dayna Roselli: So I guess they get one night to kind of go out and enjoy themselves before they have to hunker down.
• 11:30
  Sean McAllister: Huh.
• 11:31
  Dayna Roselli: So they took advantage.
• 11:32
  Dayna Roselli: I don't know.
• 11:33
  Sean McAllister: And we did uh I ask a couple uh Kansas City players about that today.
• 11:38
  Dayna Roselli: Uh-huh.
• 11:39
  Sean McAllister: And they were like, well, however they want to prepare for the game is up to them.
• 11:45
  Sean McAllister: We're doing our own thing.
• 11:46
  Dayna Roselli: Exactly.
• 11:47
  Dayna Roselli: Really interesting.
• 11:48
  Dayna Roselli: Yep.
• 11:49
  Dayna Roselli: We're doing our and what do you say?
• 11:50
  Dayna Roselli: Well, what did he say?
• 11:51
  Dayna Roselli: I'm here for business.
• 11:52
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 11:53
  Sean McAllister: So this is a business trip.
• 11:55
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 11:56
  Dayna Roselli: So really, really good stuff.
• 11:57
  Dayna Roselli: Um, lots of information.
• 11:58
  Dayna Roselli: Um, we'll post the link of my spot on TMZ.
• 12:02
  Dayna Roselli: Also, um, we did a story with CBS in Miami.
• 12:04
  Dayna Roselli: That was wonderful.
• 12:05
  Dayna Roselli: We took them on the monorail because you and I always talk about how the monorail is one of our favorite Vegas tips.
• 12:10
  Dayna Roselli: It's affordable.
• 12:12
  Dayna Roselli: It gets you, yes, it's on one side of the strip, but you know what?
• 12:16
  Dayna Roselli: If you want to avoid the parking mess and you want to avoid having to pay a lot, get off and just walk across the street if the place that you're the property you're going to is across the street from the east side of the strip, it's not that hard.
• 12:30
  Dayna Roselli: We've done it a few times.
• 12:31
  Sean McAllister: No, it's a and it's a great way to get around.
• 12:34
  Sean McAllister: Um, it's always been clean, it's cool in the summertime and warm in the wintertime, and spring and fall, it's just perfect.
• 12:44
  Dayna Roselli: Yes.
• 12:45
  Dayna Roselli: And then you did a satellite media tour on Friday, and we never talked about that.
• 12:49
  Dayna Roselli: It was a great success.
• 12:50
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, you were live in Chicago and Miami and Atlanta and Portland, Oregon, and Seattle, and Houston.
• 12:57
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 12:58
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, the lifts goes on, and then the CBS NewsPath feed and Spectrum News.
• 13:02
  Dayna Roselli: So that was a huge success.
• 13:03
  Dayna Roselli: You were live right there in front of uh Caesars Palace on the Las Vegas strip.
• 13:07
  Dayna Roselli: And everyone's response was great because they were just in such awe of, first of all, you being live on the strip.
• 13:14
  Dayna Roselli: They really could feel the excitement from what you were presenting.
• 13:19
  Dayna Roselli: And um, you know, even just all the information.
• 13:22
  Dayna Roselli: It was like overload.
• 13:23
  Dayna Roselli: Like they just had so many questions and wanted it to keep going and going and going.
• 13:26
  Dayna Roselli: You could tell, I mean, Vegas is just a fun topic in general.
• 13:30
  Sean McAllister: It really is.
• 13:31
  Sean McAllister: And there were uh some anchors up in Portland.
• 13:34
  Sean McAllister: They were like, oh my gosh, we need to do this all the time.
• 13:38
  Sean McAllister: We love Vegas, it's great.
• 13:40
  Sean McAllister: Girls' trip.
• 13:40
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 13:41
  Sean McAllister: And I mean, it was that kind of excitement, even in Detroit, where they were obviously uh pulling for the lion to end up here in Las Vegas for Super Bowl 58.
• 13:53
  Sean McAllister: That didn't happen, but even they were excited about Super Bowl.
• 13:59
  Sean McAllister: I mean, it's because it is in Las Vegas and it's going to be a spectacle.
• 14:04
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 14:05
  Dayna Roselli: And that anchor in Detroit I thought was really interesting, pointed out the fact like if you could have told me, you know, what do you say, five years ago?
• 14:12
  Sean McAllister: Yes that you guys six years ago.
• 14:14
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, we're gonna have a Stanley Cup champion and NHL team, uh, uh, uh NH uh, you know, an NFL stadium and an NFL team and host the Super Bowl, have a two-time winning WNBA women's basketball team.
• 14:29
  Sean McAllister: I mean, just you know MLB on the way, talk of NBA.
• 14:34
  Dayna Roselli: It's crazy.
• 14:35
  Dayna Roselli: Man, I know it just doesn't stop.
• 14:36
  Dayna Roselli: It doesn't stop.
• 14:37
  Dayna Roselli: So I thought that was that was interesting.
• 14:39
  Dayna Roselli: And um I noticed that the the anchor in Atlanta too was like, you know what, you've really sold me.
• 14:45
  Dayna Roselli: Like, I am ready to pack up the day and head to Vegas.
• 14:51
  Sean McAllister: She was excited, she was enthusiastic about it all.
• 14:54
  Sean McAllister: But it was, it was great having uh talking to so many stations across the country.
• 15:00
  Sean McAllister: Um, a lot of those segments were live, uh, but some of them um you may see, depending on where you live, um, they'll probably be rolling those interviews out this week leading up to the game on some of those stations as well.
• 15:15
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, and you know, if you just Google like Sean McAllister, Vegas Reveal, you'll see some of the ones that were posted already in like Oregon and also uh Atlanta and things like that.
• 15:23
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 15:23
  Dayna Roselli: But let's talk about some of the interviews we did today with some of the players.
• 15:27
  Dayna Roselli: I thought this was was interesting.
• 15:29
  Dayna Roselli: They uh the way that they do it, they they put them at different seats and they have their little own little area and the media can kind of move around and talk to each player.
• 15:38
  Dayna Roselli: I liked how they did this.
• 15:40
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, so you just walk up to uh each player's individual table.
• 15:44
  Sean McAllister: They have their their microphone there, and um, it's a it's really is kind of a cool and um a very face-to-face.
• 15:54
  Sean McAllister: It's a very intimate situation when you're talking with these players because you are right there in front of them.
• 16:01
  Dayna Roselli: I know.
• 16:01
  Dayna Roselli: So we talked to Drew Tranquil.
• 16:03
  Dayna Roselli: I love a lot of the Kansas City player names.
• 16:06
  Sean McAllister: They have good ones, too.
• 16:07
  Dayna Roselli: They do, right?
• 16:09
  Dayna Roselli: Um, and we talked to him about uh kind of what you and I just discussed, how there were a lot of 49er fans in town.
• 16:15
  Dayna Roselli: So let's let's roll that.
• 16:16
  Dayna Roselli: Does that fuel the fire?
• 16:18
  Dayna Roselli: Does it kind of you know get you going a little bit?
• 16:20
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I felt the same thing.
• 16:22
  SPEAKER_02: I felt a lot of uh some maybe some booze when we came out.
• 16:25
  SPEAKER_02: Um it's tough because we're both red, but I did see a lot of 49ers fans.
• 16:30
  SPEAKER_02: Um I'm sure they'll have a lot of fans there.
• 16:32
  SPEAKER_02: I'm sure Chief's Kingdom's gonna show up as well.
• 16:34
  SPEAKER_02: Um we'll we'll have to get our fans in the game.
• 16:37
  SPEAKER_02: It's gonna be through our energy and our execution that kind of gets our fans and takes their fans out of the game.
• 16:41
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, they're California-based, so their flights a lot a lot less, but we got Chiefs Kingdom all across the country, baby, all across the world.
• 16:47
  SPEAKER_02: And so they're gonna show up, they're gonna be there, and uh we're gonna give them something to cheer for.
• 16:50
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, so I do feel like you know, he makes a good point that, you know, all Kansas City is gonna be behind the team and they're all gonna, they're all gonna be here.
• 16:59
  Dayna Roselli: But we did forget that like opening night was a Monday.
• 17:01
  Dayna Roselli: The game isn't till Sunday.
• 17:03
  Dayna Roselli: So there's time for fans to get in in town and all that.
• 17:07
  Dayna Roselli: And speaking of opening night, just want to point out it was real fun.
• 17:09
  Dayna Roselli: We saw the cast of Beatles Love, we saw Blue Man Group, we ran into Carrot Top.
• 17:15
  Dayna Roselli: There were showgirls, there were Chiefs cheerleaders there.
• 17:18
  Dayna Roselli: It was a good time, right?
• 17:20
  Dayna Roselli: Quite a Vegas spectacle.
• 17:21
  Sean McAllister: It really was.
• 17:22
  Sean McAllister: Um, and obviously, there was a lot of media attention surrounding Travis Kelsey.
• 17:29
  Sean McAllister: And as you just mentioned, Dana, there were non-stop questions about Taylor.
• 17:36
  Sean McAllister: So should we roll some of them?
• 17:37
  Sean McAllister: Let's hear some of his answers.
• 17:39
  Sean McAllister: Why not?
• 17:39
  Dayna Roselli: Why not?
• 17:40
  Sean McAllister: These were the only answers there were.
• 17:42
  Dayna Roselli: I know, I know.
• 17:42
  Dayna Roselli: Well, he did talk a little bit about uh gambling and some of the things he likes to do in Vegas.
• 17:47
  Dayna Roselli: So let's let's cue that up.
• 17:49
  SPEAKER_01: I'll tell you what, man, I'm not thinking about anything but this football game.
• 17:52
  SPEAKER_01: There's nothing, there's nothing in my mind that's happening until this football game's over with.
• 17:56
  SPEAKER_01: You know, um Taylor has an unbelievable fan base that um that follows her and supports her throughout her life, and um, it's been fun to kind of gather the Swifties in the Chiefs Kingdom and uh open them up to um the the football world and the sports world, and it's been cool to just experience some of them.
• 18:12
  SPEAKER_01: Then we uh we landed in uh Las Vegas just in time for me to turn it on on my phone and um catch her winning her 13th award, announcing her new album, and then um obviously the big one at the end and the album of the year for the fourth time setting setting records is pretty amazing.
• 18:27
  SPEAKER_01: Um favorite thing to do while I'm in Vegas is probably hit the roulette tables.
• 18:31
  SPEAKER_01: Um I'm more of a number guy.
• 18:35
  SPEAKER_01: I like both black and red.
• 18:39
  SPEAKER_01: You can't get used to this, man.
• 18:41
  SPEAKER_01: Uh I would say the that's the excitement of it, you know.
• 18:44
  SPEAKER_01: That's the that's the blessing of it.
• 18:45
  SPEAKER_01: You get to you get to be a part of something that you that's a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
• 18:49
  SPEAKER_01: And um, I think the we've been extremely fortunate to, you know, experience this a few more times than just once, but it's uh it's never the same, and you just gotta appreciate exactly what it is, and it's uh it's nothing but chaos.
• 19:02
  Sean McAllister: You can tell Travis Kelsey really does get it though.
• 19:04
  Sean McAllister: He does.
• 19:05
  Sean McAllister: He gets the media machine, he gets that you need to answer these questions, and he comes across as a very likable guy.
• 19:14
  Dayna Roselli: He does, and he was even asked about his family a lot, and he he gets excited to talk about his family.
• 19:18
  Dayna Roselli: I heard him say, you know, thank you for I really love that people look at my family, embrace them, understand what a strong bond we have, understand our relationship, you know, two brothers in the NFL.
• 19:31
  Dayna Roselli: Um, and then everyone's asking about, you know, his shirtless brother at the Bills game.
• 19:36
  Dayna Roselli: I know.
• 19:36
  Dayna Roselli: And he and he loved talking about it, you know.
• 19:39
  Dayna Roselli: He laughs and I heard him ask, and like I was walking by today, and it was like someone asked him the same question, and I'm like, man, but he doesn't act like it's a repeat.
• 19:47
  Dayna Roselli: He checked each time, like it's the first time that he's heard heard that question.
• 19:52
  Dayna Roselli: And that is smart, and you know what you're doing.
• 19:54
  Dayna Roselli: If we were to media train, that's what we'd say to do.
• 19:57
  Sean McAllister: We absolutely would.
• 19:58
  Dayna Roselli: In our media training, that's what we tell people to do.
• 20:00
  Dayna Roselli: So there you go.
• 20:01
  Dayna Roselli: Free tip for everyone.
• 20:03
  Dayna Roselli: Um, yeah, and and Patrick Mahomes is, you know, going with the punches too, obviously.
• 20:08
  Dayna Roselli: Um, he's really good at answering folks.
• 20:11
  Dayna Roselli: Um, he had a tough, you know, week, I'm sure, with the news about his dad.
• 20:16
  Dayna Roselli: Um and what do you get a DWI?
• 20:19
  Dayna Roselli: DUI.
• 20:20
  Dayna Roselli: I don't know.
• 20:20
  Dayna Roselli: Everywhere they call it something different.
• 20:22
  Dayna Roselli: In New York, it was DWI.
• 20:23
  Dayna Roselli: But yeah, I felt bad for him thinking, I hope it doesn't take his focus off.
• 20:26
  Dayna Roselli: But he looks okay.
• 20:27
  Dayna Roselli: His head's in the game and and he knows what he has to do.
• 20:30
  Sean McAllister: He does.
• 20:30
  Sean McAllister: Uh hey, when we were inside Allegiant Stadium for uh the Super Bowl opening night, uh, I looked up in the in the rafters and saw all of this rigging that's going to come down from the roof of Allegiant Stadium for the halftime show featuring Usher and possibly some of his famous friends.
• 20:52
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, and we've been wondering like who's it gonna be?
• 20:54
  Dayna Roselli: Well, uh inside source of mine um has an inside source that told her.
• 21:02
  Sean McAllister: There's a lot of sourcing of sources going on.
• 21:04
  Dayna Roselli: A lot of sourcing of sources, the sorcerers.
• 21:06
  Dayna Roselli: Um, so basically, um Usher's been rehearsing, you know, probably not inside the stadium.
• 21:12
  Dayna Roselli: They do a lot of rehearsals other places, but apparently there's been the sighting of a piano, and Usher doesn't play piano.
• 21:18
  Dayna Roselli: So a lot of people have already, you know, conveniently said it's gotta be Alicia Keys.
• 21:24
  Sean McAllister: Oh you know, they have that song Oh Alicia's great.
• 21:28
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, and then other people are saying maybe Justin Bieber, you know, Bieber was he would be great too, mentored by Usher.
• 21:34
  Dayna Roselli: Right, he's been showing some rehearsal stuff on his Instagram, and everyone's like, what is he rehearsing for?
• 21:41
  Dayna Roselli: Then he was at the NHL All Star Weekend, was it, or NHL Awards in in Canada recently, and um he actually played and uh he did like a pop up performance, and Justin has not actually performed or sang in about two years since he had to stop his tour because he got sick.
• 22:00
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 22:00
  Dayna Roselli: And so I wonder if this is a little comeback moment for him.
• 22:03
  Dayna Roselli: I don't know.
• 22:04
  Dayna Roselli: Um it maybe, maybe not.
• 22:06
  Dayna Roselli: And then a lot of people are talking ludicrous, maybe Little John.
• 22:11
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 22:13
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, what?
• 22:14
  Dayna Roselli: One of Usher's most notable famous songs.
• 22:17
  Dayna Roselli: So they've got to.
• 22:18
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, we'll see.
• 22:19
  Sean McAllister: I think that there's going to be multiple people popping up.
• 22:22
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 22:22
  Sean McAllister: That is my predic Oh my God, prediction.
• 22:26
  Dayna Roselli: Prediction, prediction.
• 22:27
  Sean McAllister: Is long already.
• 22:29
  Dayna Roselli: I know.
• 22:29
  Dayna Roselli: We've got I I gotta get a nap in before this party tonight.
• 22:32
  Dayna Roselli: Okay, let's wrap this up.
• 22:34
  Dayna Roselli: Hey, let's talk about how so many people think uh Vegas is an ideal location for a Super Bowl.
• 22:40
  Dayna Roselli: That's been the chatter.
• 22:41
  Dayna Roselli: We've been chatting with people in elevators, sitting, talking to other media, and they're loving it.
• 22:47
  Dayna Roselli: They're loving how everything is in one location.
• 22:50
  Dayna Roselli: You don't have to drive across the city to get to Super Bowl experience, then hit a press conference.
• 22:55
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, the only place that you have to drive to is Lake Las Vegas for the team press conferences because the team is staying off the strip so that they're not distracted.
• 23:04
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 23:04
  Sean McAllister: And that's only media that need to worry about that.
• 23:06
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 23:06
  Sean McAllister: Which is fortunate.
• 23:07
  Sean McAllister: Um, but we talked with Katie Keenan, who is the NFL Senior Director of Live Operations, about what it is that makes Las Vegas so convenient for an event like Super Bowl.
• 23:24
  SPEAKER_00: There's just a great mixture of people that come out, whether it's for an event like Opening Night, which is a lot of local people, and then we've got our a lot of fans that travel in sort of for the weekend, and they spend the whole weekend in town and they get to really take in all that Las Vegas has to offer, all that the Super Bowl has to offer.
• 23:40
  SPEAKER_00: They come to a lot of people will be at Allegiance Stadium for the first time.
• 23:44
  SPEAKER_00: Um, and I'm sure that they'll want to return.
• 23:48
  Sean McAllister: I certainly hope they want to return.
• 23:50
  Sean McAllister: I mean, it's so much fun.
• 23:51
  Sean McAllister: We live in the best city.
• 23:54
  Sean McAllister: It really is.
• 23:54
  Sean McAllister: It is a place that is designed for fans.
