Las Vegas named 3rd sweatiest city

July 2, 2009 · Print This Article

Old Spice, the deodorant which knows a thing or two about sweat, has rated our fine neon city as the 3rd sweatiest city in the nation.

As temperatures stay in the 3-digit range (after enjoying an particularly cool June), we find that quite evident as we’re applying the deodorant sticks a little more liberally (alas, not Old Spice).

Sweaty cities are actually determined based on the amount of sweat an average

person would excrete while walking for an hour during the summer months.

Old Spice has been actively checking armpits since 2001.

What city was the sweatiest? That would be nearby Phoenix, which for its honor received 94 sticks of Old Spice (the average summer temperature in Phoenix is 94 degrees from 2001-2008).

The average Las Vegas summer temperature is 98.5 degrees.
