Mark Wahlberg is taking his Las Vegas residency seriously.
The Hollywood A-lister was seated next to Circa and the D Las Vegas co-owner Derek Stevens at Sunday’s Golden Knights-Stars Western Conference playoff game at T-Mobile Arena.
Wahlberg was on Stevens’ left at the resort owner’s usual seats behind the Golden Knights’ goal in the first period.
Stevens wife, Nicole Stevens, was seated at his left; and the D Casino Director Richard Wilk was on Wahlberg’s left.
Wahberg also joined Golden Knights arena announcer and entertainment official Mark Shunock to crank the siren in The Fortress between the first and second periods.
Wahlberg reportedly visited Circa this month during pitching great Greg Maddux’s Baller Dream Celebrity Poker tournament. He also visited downtown Las Vegas in February to filmed scenes of his upcoming movie “The Family Plan” at at the Plaza, continuing on to The Strat, among other Vegas destinations.
The release date has not been announced, but Wahlberg wants to premiere the film in Las Vegas, as part of his “Hollywood 2.o” strategy.
