The game is set in Las Vegum, a theme park dedicated to video games. The game is full of video game references, there is not one spot of the park where you will not see a poster, statue, enemy, scenery etc that references another video game. And so it is only right to have Spyro in it, as pretty much every other big platforming game series is parodied.

Here is a boat on Pirate Island designed to look like Spyro. There's some of these on a merry-go-round/carousel thing outside on the beach too.
Also in the same island when you're riding a zipline-type thing you pass by a huge sign with THIS picture of Spyro on it, only he is wearing Roman armour.
If you haven't played this game I'd recommend checking it out, it was made by the same people who made Dawn of the Dragon. I hate DOTD and think it is terrible but I consider this to be the best game of all time and a tribute to all video games.
