Golden Knights fans invaded Staples Center for Game 3 of a playoff series on Sunday night.
Ticket prices on the secondary market fell well below what they would be for a game at T-Mobile Arena.
Some fans who made the trip from Las Vegas paid as little as $112 per ticket for Sunday’s game.
“We saved enough money that we also took the kids to Knott’s Berry Farm today before the game,” said one Knights fan.
The series against the Kings continues in Los Angeles with Game 4 on Tuesday night.
Two summers ago, RedEye was just one of 57 companies that submitted a proposal to provide a water technology solution to Nevada.

News reports of yet another mass tragedy, this time at a high school in Florida, may have set off a wave of renewed sorrow and stress across Las Vegas. Local psychologists say they’re ready to help Oct. 1 survivors and Las Vegans affected by the shooting on the Strip who exhibit symptoms of post-traumatic stress triggered by the killing of 17 students and staff in Parkland, Florida on Wednesday. Call volumes are increasing at the Vegas Strong Resiliency Center following the shooting in Florida, said Clark County Assistant Manager Kevin Schiller. “It’s definitely a trigger point, and it’s definitely causing an increase in a need for service,” Schill said. The reaction is normal, said Michelle Paul, director of The Practice, UNLV’s therapy clinic. “I would expect everybody to be triggered at some level,” Paul said. Many of those affected will feel a range of emotions, from sadness and anger, to flashbacks and difficulty sleeping and eating, Paul said.
Las Vegas’ office market was left for dead during the recession as job losses soared and buildings emptied. Now, investor purchases are climbing fast.

An artist in Ohio has drawn portraits of the 58 victims of the Las Vegas shooting. Ron Moore Jr. flew to Nevada Monday to hand-deliver the last three portraits, including one of Metropolitan Police Department officer Charleston Hartfield. Over 25 days, Moore dedicated nearly 175 hours to drawing portraits of the victims. Moore was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2004. He prayed that if God would give him the ability to draw again, he would use his talent to bless others. Moore also surprised Las Vegas police with a painting of an eagle. The painting and Hartfield’s portrait will remain on display inside the Las Vegas police headquarters’ main lobby.
