There are a large number of people from Hawaii who live here. The ones I know came for the relatively "low" cost of living.

That's exactly why my family left Hawaii in the 80s. No need for the quotations marks with low. It *is* low, compared to what it costs living here.

When you add up the numbers of the former Hawaii residents in Las Vegas PLUS the number of current Hawaii residents who take frequent vacations (including my own parents, who visit every 2-3 months), it's no wonder they call Las Vegas "the 9th Hawaiian Island."

12,000 Hawaii fans at Sam Boyd Stadium last Saturday (including my parents). Makes me wish I tagged along now.

The quotations are because I'm from a small town in Oklahoma, so here the cost of living is "low." I have a couple friends who live in Honolulu and one who lives on the Big Island, the cost of living is crazy. I don't know how everyone can do it.

I live pretty close to Sam Boyd and it was packed.
