It's no news flash that the Strip is getting more expensive. Entertainment and sports in the resort corridor are no exception.

But how does this impact locals wanting to see concerts, Absinthe, or Golden Knights games? Are they biting the bullet so as not to miss out, or are they reconsidering what they attend?

And are locals' discounts — of which there are several this summer — enough to counterbalance the notion that events on or near the Strip are too pricey for Las Vegans?

This is a special episode of State of Nevada done in collaboration with Vegas PBS.
