Title: NFR expected to leave Las Vegas for Florida after nearly 3 decades

What the buck?  This could be a serious blow to Las Vegas.  National Finals Rodeo (NFR - the Superbowl of rodeo) is the first week of December, during Las Vegas' slowest visitor month.

There are rumors now that the contract is still being negotiated and they may not leave after all.
