Golden Knights’ ‘Igniter’ wins pro sports’ top-act award

The Kats! Bureau at this moment is what I call The Perch at T-Mobile Arena. Fittingly enough, Cameron Hughes has just rambled up the aisles. This is his shtick as he sheds multiple Vegas Golden Knights T-shirts, and climbs atop the handrails as if begging to be tased.

Hughes, a man in need of a bouncy house, has topped the 2018 Best Act category in the annual GameOps.com awards. The web platform is considered the premiere sports-entertainment site in the U.S. Hughes, dubbed “The Igniter,” also won the award in 2017 and 2012, beating such nominees as past winners Red Panda Acrobat and The Amazing Sladek.
