Two weeks after the Formula One Las Vegas Grand Prix drew hundreds of thousands of fans to the city, the sports and entertainment capital of the world is transitioning to its second major holiday season special event, the National Finals Rodeo.

Ten rodeo performances are scheduled Thursday through Dec. 14 at the Thomas &Mack Center on UNLV’s campus.

The 40th running of the event is one of the toughest tickets in town to get because the rodeo has sold out 359 consecutive performances.
