The Bellagio Fountains In Vegas Are An Absolute Scene For The Super Bowl

The Bellagio Fountains are an absolute scene for the Super Bowl in Las Vegas.

CBS will air Super Bowl LVIII between the 49ers and Chiefs this Sunday, and the network might have picked the best real estate in Sin City to set up its broadcasting location for the week.

The Bellagio Fountains have been closed off for the set, and it's downright awesome seeing the historic location combined with NFL action.

Not only does the set look awesome in Vegas, but the fountains and water going off in the background with the restaurants in view is nothing short of an absolute scene.

There was simply no other area of the strip that would have made sense for the NFL and its broadcast partners to take over.

Could the Wynn or the Venetian possibly have been an option? Maybe, but it's not the same as the Bellagio and the resort's legendary fountains.

When you think of the center of the strip, you think of two things:

The Bellagio Fountains and Caesars Palace.

Caesars Palace is an incredible resort and hotel with plenty of dining and shopping options. However, the Bellagio Fountains serve one simple purpose, and that purpose is to put on a show.

It's a gorgeous area, especially at dawn and dusk. I did the high roller a few years ago to see it from an elevated position at night, and it was amazing.

Now, the NFL and CBS are posted up there for the days leading up to the Super Bowl.

Something tells me we're going to have a lot of other awesome content coming out of Vegas when it comes to the scenes. I can't wait to soak it all up. Let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
