HENDERSON (KTNV) — Las Vegas is quickly becoming the city of champions, giving Southern Nevadans plenty to celebrate.
"This is amazing, you have to be there," one local said.
One such celebration happened Thursday evening at M Resort as the Vegas Knight Hawks hosted a party in honor of their first-ever IFL National Championship.
