For the first time ever, the Vegas Golden Knights took over the University of Nevada Las Vegas men’s basketball team (Runnin Rebels) on Tuesday, Feb. 4th to give Vegas fans the full experience for VGK Knight at the Thomas & Mack.

The calm before the storm! All fans in attendance received a poster representing the historic collaboration of the two #Vegasborn teams.

The VGK Cast got the party started inside the Thomas & Mack as they marched the hallway ahead of the tip off.

The Runnin Rebels hosted Boise State to continue their conference play. Adin Hill kicked off the pregame with the annual “Lights Please.”

Golden Pipes, Carnell Johnson came out to perform the National Anthem!

The Rebels came out in full Golden Style as they announced the lineups with the very same music as the Golden Knights!

With special performances throughout the second and fourth timeouts of the first half from the Vegas Vivas and Drumbots!
