It only took three revisions by my editor for me to realize that the Wolfgang Puck and the Vegas Golden Knights collaboration is not a coincidence.
They have pucks in common.
“We are thrilled to be partnering with members of the Vegas Golden Knights here in Las Vegas, the new hockey capital of the world,” said Wolfgang Puck.
For the first time ever, Wolfgang Puck is teaming up with a professional sports team to create: Wolfgang Puck Players Locker.
The likelihood of seeing of the players to very high considering Alex Tuch, William Karlsson, Deryk Engelland, Reilly Smith and Shea Theodore are partners in this hospitality venture.
“The opportunity to be a partner in the first-ever sports restaurant in Vegas is something I couldn’t pass up. I am very excited to work side by side with one of the greatest chefs in the world, Wolfgang Puck,” said Alex Tuch, forward for the Vegas Golden Knights.
Wolfgang Puck Players Locker is actually the once Wolfgang Puck Bar & Grill in Downtown Summerlin.
Food wise, the restaurant promises to combine “sensational culinary,” and, “sports fare and an innovative new beverage program,” and watching games on their plasma TVs.
A source says Wolfgang Puck Players Locker is going to be an inclusive and family friendly environment.
“We have created a unique and one-of-a-kind sports dining experience around great food and the best players in the NHL!,” said Wolfgang Puck.
The restaurant is set to open towards the end of January 2020.
