What does Vegas say?

Does Las Vegas or any other organization make odds for The Tour?

I don't think there's sufficient interest in the USA for Las Vegas to
offer odds.

Ladbrokes is often a good place to look for sporting wagers.
Ladbrokes.com gives the following odds bets:

Armstrong 1.72
Ullrich 4.50
Basso 8.00
Vino 10.00
Mayo 21.00
Kloden 26.00
Leipheimer, Botero, Popovych @ 34.00
Valverde, Julich, Heras @ 51.00
Landis, Mancebo, Pereiro, Karpets @ 67.00
Moreau, Sastre, Savoldelli (misspelled on site) @ 81.00

Under the Special bets are odds on LANCE's final GC.
There are a lot of people that are thinking if he
doesn't make the podium then he doesn't finish.

McGee is a slight favorite over LANCE for the first
stage.

That seems to be quite well-informed.

Anyone have a good place to watch the Tour in the morning in Vegas?
I'll be there on the Strip July 12-15. Does ESPN Zone at New York New
York dare carry OLN?

Thanks!
