Lady Liberty is ready for some football! Las Vegas’ New York-New York Hotel and Casino installed a massive Raiders jersey on their giant version of the Statue of Liberty. KVVU shared pics of the facemask-wearing statue donning a no.20 jersey. Liberty’s new look comes just in time for the NFL’s first game of 2020 on Thursday when the Chiefs host the Texans at 8:20 pm. The Raiders will play their inaugural Las Vegas NFL game Sunday, September 13th against the Panthers at 1 pm.
