He was from Amarillo, Texas but I don't think he was particularly "cowboy". If you read his FB page, he doesn't even mention country music, and in none of the images, do you see him in cowboy boots or anything like that.
What some of us are thinking, though, is that he could have gone to Vegas to do some work at a venue (ie, for an exhibitor). It would explain him driving down on the 12th -- and there's a possibility he could have met someone there.
It's just another of our wild longshots.
It'd be great if we could get a list of the 2009 Cowboy Christmas exhibitors. Anyone here have connections to the LV Convention Center?

Not sure we should focus entirely on the CC exhibitors. When NFR is in town, so are many country music headliners. And I would venture to say every local country band in the city is working somewhere in town during NFR.
It's really not ALL about the rodeo, per se. There's a lot going on all over town. Every lounge, every dance hall, every bar with a country music slant, will take advantage.
The NFR is really the only major city-wide event we have in Vegas during this particular time of year. Until New Year's you could almost hear a pin drop if not for NFR.
