From exclusive events to concerts: Stars and athletes plan to flock Las Vegas for Super Bowl events

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Las Vegas will be flooded with so many pre- Super Bowl events that Shaquille O'Neal lowered the prices to his popular carnival-themed “ Shaq's Fun House. ”

Instead of raising the rate, O'Neal decided to offer potential attendees more bang for their buck to the NBA legend's sixth annual event planned for Friday in Sin City. He made the decision to lower the rates after purchasing an expensive suite at the Formula One that cost nearly five times more than normal to watch the racing event in Las Vegas last year.

"We're not going to do that to the people,” said O'Neal, who said the going rate for Fun House starts at $99 but will increase as the event nears. He'll bring back Lil Wayne, Diplo and himself under his name DJ Diesel to perform during his over-the-top festival — which features several attractions including a Ferris wheel, circus performers and premium bar.

“We could've done $200, $250 or $300,” said O'Neal whose event will take place XS Nightclub at the Wynn — a hotel that will host Rob Gronkowski 's Gronk Beach in Encore on Saturday afternoon and Sports Illustrated's The Party in XS Nightclub later that night. "But I don't like taking advantage of people. We want to have the best party with the best rides, performers and just hanging out.”
