The Raiders’ upcoming move to Las Vegas is being greeted with open arms — or something — by one enterprising Nevada businessman.
According to Mick Akers of the Las Vegas Sun, Nevada brothel owner Dennis Hof announced plans to open a Raiders-themed establishment called “Pirate’s Booty.”
“I’ve had a license for a seventh brothel near Las Vegas for some time now, but I was waiting for the right time to launch another house of debauchery,” Hof said. “The Raiders coming to Vegas will mean big business for me, so my next sex den will honor the ‘Men in Black’ and their ‘Raider Nation.’”
(In a related note, Hall of Famer and former Raider Warren Sapp is plotting a comeback as we speak.)
The house of ill repute will be 90 miles outside of Las Vegas in Crystal. Hof said Raiders players and staff will get 50 percent off at his establishments, and there will be a VIP section at staffed with “over 20 cheerleader-garbed working girls.”
So now, at least someone other than fans in Oakland will be getting, … oh, never mind.
Well, there you go. You bought into this, NFL.
Hey, wasn’t that in Libby’s proposal too?
appropriate for a loser franchise
Whelp, that seals the deal. I’ll definitely be taking several trips to Vegas to see the Raiders play. I’ll be watching on TV of course because I’ll be at Mr. Hof’s new establishment.
Git ‘er done!
The Raiders will have the best injury report ever: “Sprained Ankle, Pulled Hamstring, Syphilis.”
Yes, but will it make it as an HBO series?
They are probably used to having to pay for it but it will be a real change of pace for Raiders fans to get some legally
maybe he can decorate as a sunken ship
Very fitting. Fans typically get screwed by the NFL. They also typically make you pay for the screwing.
That’s one way to improve the ‘game day experience’, to borrow a phrase from the league.
Just one more reason to plan your big annual vacation for Vegas if your team has an away game there.
There are gonna be alot of babies without Fathers born in this town, this lonely town.
And. So its starts!!!!!!
You know I’m okay with it. It’s business right. However, don’t tell everyone it’s about the integrity of the game when you move to Vegas. 53 Guys and how many officials will be targeted to miss a kick or a call. NFL equals greed.
Yeah…nothing but class in moving to Vegas…
STD factories.
Remember, one night stands only last one night, but syphilis lasts a lifetime….
If you’re going to do it, do it right: This totally needs to be part of the club level in the new stadium. And it should have the option of the girls or johns (or both) dressing up in those crazy Raider fan costumes.
I had to laugh at the choice of photo for this article.
Can’t wait to see this on HBO’s Hard Knock.
Cool, nothing wrong with that.
The NFL will be 100% completely against this …. unless they can somehow make money off of it.
Anyone know why Cathouse was cancel? Was the Second best show on HBO besides OZ!!!
50% off for the team…
What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Of course, this place isn’t actually in Vegas,….so stuff might not stay there.
I’m curious though….does the department of health do inspections on places like this? If so, what exactly do they ‘inspect’?
Uh-oh.
If you have to pay to get some, then you’ve got a lot of problems.
I think that I’ll just stick with the $5 lobster and $2 steak and eggs when in town…..
nevada: where a pimp is a “businessman.”
90 mile round trip for fun? Who needs that?

NFL is turning more and more into the movie Any Given Sunday by the day
Hey Roger, what about the $hield.
Looks like material for *Hard Knocks*.
Forbidden fruit falling from the trees of Sin City.
The end of the Raider mystique is near.
All my Raider-hater brethren everywhere. Basque in the sunshine of this glorious day.

Anyone can adopt a pirate theme but there are trademark issues in appropriating Raiders ID. NFL Properties may have an opinion and take action on this one
I’m on my way….. 🙂
The 70’s Raiders would’ve loved this!
That escalated quickly.
What could possibly go wrong?
Win or lose, you always get a Happy Ending!
You’re going to have to put that backfield in motion so you can score in the red zone. The jokes just write themselves.
50% off..huh? no wonder Mark Davis made this pitch..that lonely SOB
Talking about a pirate’s booty, well with a Raider’s themed brothel, sin city will truly earn its name. What a disgrace to a former dignified and all American team’s image.
And you are sure such brothels don’t exist in Oakland? Man, how naive are you fan boys?
Because of course.
No legal issues here unless they are using Raiders trade dress. Raiders have no rights to Pirates Booty. And yes, they can advertise descriptively to “Raiders Fans.”
Your local counsel.
“Raiders players and staff will get 50 percent off at his establishments, and there will be a VIP section at staffed with “over 20 cheerleader-garbed working girls.””
Hilarious. Can he offer gambling on site too?
Of course in about an hour we’ll be seeing a new article titled “NFL to take legal action against Hof to prevent Raider themed brothel unless league office and front office employees of all 32 teams get the same 50% off deal”
The greatest sports bar ever.
I think driving 90 miles for a Raiders themed brothel when there are many many brothels much closer to the city is going to be too much of a hassle, Hof.
YES!!! Make Football Great Again… I’d go.
Jerry Jones will keep his ”Hollywood bus” parked in Vegas just for things like this.
Because there’s nothing I’d rather be reminded of in intimate moments than large sweaty men in tight pants…
“””ROAD TRIP””””’
…. that last sentence though…. brilliant.
Hof is also opening a chain of barbershops in Vegas so that every guy leaves with a free Mark Davis haircut.

Professor, what’s another word for ‘pirate treasure’?
Well, I think it’s ‘booty’. Booty, booty…………………….
That’s what it is.
Have to love free enterprise. Almost was snatched from us folks!
Las Vegas better get the gang unit beefed up too
Haha, it’s the Raiders we’re talking about. All the “VIP” girls will be sitting around chewing gum and looking disappointed.
We all saw how this worked out fot Lamar Odem and we all know how
good NFL players do at practicing maturity, restraint, and good judgement! I just don’t want to hear Goodell talking about the integrity of the shield or player safety anymore.
This move is all about greed and the Owners are all complicent in selling out the fanbases. But, this is nothing new and as long as fans allow it by continuing to support these franchises, nothing will change and any franchise could be vulnerable.
There is a grain of irony to this story as Goodell turns out to be the ultimate pimp.
Now that’s a season of Hard Knocks that I would actually watch!
Todd Marinovich has a lot of catching up to do. 😉
It may be “themed” but the NFL and the Raiders hold all the licensing agreements for their name and logos. This guy better be careful or he’ll get the pants sued off him.
