Tickets go on sale today for the May 2 bout between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao. Let’s be honest, none of you are going. None of us mere mortals have the coin to attend a fight where tickets are going for up to $10k a pop. Some of you, however, might be in Las Vegas enjoying fight festivities. Good for you. Unless you’re at an MGM property, you won’t able to see anything. They’ve blocked other hotels from showing it.
No non-MGM Vegas hotel/casinos are allowed to show the Floyd-Manny fight, including in their bars, restaurants or rooms.

“Hey, did you see the fight?”
“Yeah, bro.”
“How was it?”
“Oh, I actually didn’t see it, but, like, heard it was cool.”
