Costco Pushing Golden Knights Logo Gear As VGK Merchandise Shows Up Everywhere

By Alan Snel of LVSportsBiz.com

The array of Vegas Golden Knights logo gear on sale around Las Vegas is picking up as Christmas gets nearer.

Here are items for sale at the Costco in Summerlin.

 

 

Even then The Weekly magazine has a model wearing a Vegas Golden Knights jersey on the cover of its current edition.

Go to any weekend farmer’s market around Las Vegas and you will find all types of items — from coats for dogs to backpacks — with the Golden Knights logo on them. The team hasn’t cracked down on those vendors selling Golden Knights merchandise without paying for the license. But it’s out there.


On Monday, the Knights sent out an alert saying there were a limited number of fixed seats starting at $95 for the VGK-Wild game tonight. I’m predicting about 18,200 announced attendance for tonight.
