Shaquille O'Neal wants the NFL to hold Super Bowl in Las Vegas every year

The NFL is holding the LVIII Super Bowl in Las Vegas this year and Shaquille O'Neal made sure he capitalized big on the occasion. The Super Bowl will be star-studded and is set to draw over 330,000 people in Vegas. This year, the Super Bowl will witness a performance from Grammy Award winner Usher at halftime.

Now, Shaq wants the NFL to hold the Super Bowl in Sin City every single year. He also provided his logic behind it.

"I think they should have the Super Bowl here every year," he said. "I think the NFL should do a 20-, 50-year deal because it makes sense. Hotel accommodations – like a lot of cities when you go to the Super Bowl, if you don’t call early, you’re not gonna get it," Shaq told Fox News Digital.

Shaquille O'Neal also expressed his desire to meet “cultural icon” Taylor Swift during the Super Bowl. Swift will reportedly fly from Tokyo and is expected be in attendance to support her boyfriend Travis Kelce. The LA Lakers legend added that he wants to take a picture with Swift for his daughter.

According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, it is estimated that the total spending from attendees in Vegas during the Super Bowl will be between $500 million and $1.1 billion. According to the National Retail Federation survey, overall, the food alone is expected to garner $17.3 billion in spending from fans across the country.
