A new Ferris wheel attaction is coming to Las Vegas, Nevada. However, this is not the first time Ferris and Nevada have been connected. Without looking it up on the internet, what was the initial connection between the inventor of the Ferris Wheel, George Ferris, Jr., and the state of Nevada? Hide your response in a spoiler tag please.

Hint: It's not because he was called "Big Shot" too


Edit:
An article from April 2012's, "Nevada Magazine"

Good question. Didn't know the answer until I looked it up so I can't answer.
