And he's just, he's a crazy, crazy visionary like that.
And it's like, he doesn't often think about actually the logistics involved.
He's like, let's do that.
When we did Times Square.
Let's do that sort of thing.
Yeah, but his other idea was to do it in Alcatraz.
To stage a big show in the prison.
And the fighters coming in on boat off the island, right?
And walking out with prison guards wearing the orange corner suit.
but like that's that's actually that's show business yeah yeah so it's pretty cool and i think i think you'll be watching on this night and it will look like ai it would look like what what is going on here but what what's the the thinking behind his decisions around so is he his job is like around tourism essentially yeah yeah he's doing these events in other countries like what's i think he's a mad boxing fan right so a lot of these events i mean there's two things there's ring
which is what he bought personally, and there's Riyadh Season.
And there's Gia, and he's like the head of entertainment for Saudi Arabia and stuff like that.
So around Riyadh Season, he produces a calendar of events that is phenomenal.

So he's kind of started in Saudi Arabia.
Now he's got these shows all around the world.
