We all knew that the 2020 NFL draft in Las Vegas would have some over-the-top elements. Few — if any — of us expected that one of those over-the-top elements would include boats.
NFL draft officials revealed plans for the April 23-25 event on Tuesday. And those plans include boat transportation for draftees. Yes, really.
Players attending the draft will not walk to the pre-draft red-carpet stage. Instead, they’ll be taken to the stage via boat at the Bellagio Hotel and Casino as it will be in the Bellagio’s famous fountain pool.
Given that the event is in Vegas, we can only imagine there will be odds placed on which player will jump into the water in celebratory fashion first.
