Raiders launch work on stadium in Las Vegas

The Raiders held a groundbreaking event at the planned Las Vegas stadium site at Interstate 15 and Russell Road. The event included a tribute to the 58 people who died in the Oct. 1 mass shooting. “For the Raiders to be successful and ultimately win, it takes teamwork,” Raiders owner Mark Davis said NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and Gov. Brian Sandoval were the top dignitaries on hand. “Only in Vegas can you turn a groundbreaking ceremony into a show,” Goodell said “Well … now it’s real, right?” Sandoval said. “This is one of the most transformative moments in the history of Las Vegas.”
