Picture a traditional hockey town, only with better weather.
Thousands of frenzied fans filled the plaza outside T-Mobile Arena Wednesday for the first playoff game in Golden Knights history.
Dallis Holmes marked the occasion by getting the Knights logo tattooed on his hand at a booth in Toshiba Plaza.
“Because, I love hockey!” he explained.
The $30 tattoos were part of a promotion by Revolt Tattoos, with proceeds going to the Golden Knights’ charitable foundation.
Two hours before the game, the NHL hosted a free concert in the plaza, headlined by rapper Logic. A sea of steel gray, black, gold and red cheered, jumped and sipped their beers along with the music.
