They say what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, but if I was visiting the Las Vegas Sphere, I’d want to tell everyone I knew about it.

The Las Vegas Sphere had its debut concert with U2 taking the stage recently, and the photos and videos from the show were truly out of this world. It was something that no one has seen or experienced before, let alone while a concert is going on.

Not only were the visuals inside the Sphere truly mind blowing, but being outside of the Sphere is also a crazy experience. As you can see in the photos below, they can turn the Sphere into really anything, from planet Earth to a giant basketball.
