• Action film icon Travis Pastrana rode his motorcycle through Boulder Station Casino on Sunday to promote the upcoming Nitro Circus tour.
• The casino’s owners, Frank and Lorenzo Fertitta, are key investors in Nitro Circus’ parent organization.
• The stunt took place just hours before Colby Raha attempted a record vertical jump at Caesars.

On Sunday, action sports legend Travis Pastrana surprised visitors by riding a motorcycle across the gaming area of Boulder Station Hotel & Casino, changing the ordinary atmosphere for those present at the Las Vegas local hotspot.

A video shared by Nitro Circus captures Pastrana — dressed in full racing gear and helmet — maneuvering around slot machines and blackjack tables, alongside the entrance to Railhead entertainment.

In an additional video capturing the event, astonished onlookers try to film the exhilarating moment, while one blackjack player seems indifferent, merely glancing up before focusing back on her cards.

Nitro Circus officials confirmed that the stunt was organized to promote the forthcoming “Nitro Circus 2.0” summer tour, even though Las Vegas isn’t listed on the tour map.

Pastrana, who co-founded Nitro Circus in 2003, continues to be its most prominent figure, recognized for his audacious feats in freestyle motocross and rally racing.

Subsequently, Pastrana attended an unrelated event where daredevil Colby Raha made an attempt for a world-record vertical motorcycle jump at the Caesars Palace fountains, which was inaccurately described in a press release as an Evel Knievel-style jump over the fountains.

In July 2018, Pastrana replicated the iconic Knievel jump during a live broadcast event.

Nitro Circus operates under Thrill One Sports & Entertainment, an action-sports company based in Las Vegas with a portfolio that includes Street League Skateboarding and Power Slap. The involvement of Station Casinos owners Frank and Lorenzo Fertitta as investors helps clarify how Pastrana secured approval for his recent stunt.

No injuries were recorded, and the casino continued its operations as usual following the event. Nitro Circus representatives confirmed this will be Pastrana’s only appearance in Las Vegas this year.
