Truth be told, Lan Beyster is her own personal Vegas Golden Knights Foundation. She’s generous beyond anyone’s expectations, making it possible for many fans with limited resources to follow VGK games, receive Knights swag and soak up the Golden Knights experience.

Case in point: Beyster — ringleader of a VGK fan club called the Vegas Golden & Silver Knights Misfits Fan Group — spent the $2,000 the Golden Knights were asking to rent a luxury suite at T-Mobile Arena for up to 10 people to watch Game 6 between the Golden Knights and Vancouver Canucks Thursday. The deal included food and beverage, and allowed fans to watch the game on the center hung Jumbotron and on screens in the suite. VGK did not allow media access to the arena to report on the suite deal for Game 6.

LVSportsBiz.com asked Beyster about the $2,000 suite deal in this week’s LVSportsBiz.com Five Questions feature:

LVSportsBiz.com: What’s your take on the VGK $2,000 price sales pitch?

Lan Beyster: Yes, it was $2K. I think the excitement of a clinching/advancing game the Knights know the fans are pumped and used that to their advantage and make their sales pitch. I get super pumped for those games, too. I’ll go all out.

LVSB: What was the suite like?

LB: As for the suite, I enjoyed it tremendously because that back in the fortress feel was awesome. Then I got to treat my friends to the suite life. A lot of them can’t afford the suite life and now they have.

LVSB: Was it worth it?

LB: I thought it was worth every penny I shelled out. And my friends can now say they’ve experienced the suite life.

LVSB: Would you buy the deal again?

LB: do it again for next round, if it goes there and if the price is right.

LVSB: How was the food and beverage and did that help make the deal worthwhile?

LB: Food: . The food was not that great lol. I did not get the upgraded food and beverages. So we had beers, water and sodas. Upgraded would include mix drinks type alcohol. Everything was either salty or too sweet lol. The overall social distancing was on point. Our service gal is not allowed into our suite. Whatever we needed we just called out to her. And the suites were every other suite that was occupied.
