San Antonio taxpayers paid nearly 200 million for a football arena (Alamodome) and we didn’t even have an NFL franchise. Still don’t.

Yet that arena has brought us billions in return.

Good investment, wouldn’t ya say?

What billions?

From ticket revenue that would have been spent somewhere else in the city on other forms of entertainment? How could that arena possibly have brought you billions in returns?

Or, is this subtle sarcasm?
