Benny Binion was a casino pioneer as founder of Binion’s Horseshoe on Fremont Street and the long-running World Series of Poker. He also helped lure the National Finals Rodeo to Thomas & Mack Center in 1985, and is inarguably one of Las Vegas’s founding fathers.
And today, the statue honoring the great Benny Binion is outfitted in a Vegas Golden Knights jersey.
The familiar statue of Binion riding tall in the saddle at South Point hotel-casino was dressed for the Stanley Cup Finals on Tuesday. You can find oversized Benny, also wielding a Golden Knights flag, on the walkway leading to the South Point Arena & Equestrian Center.
