But, if you dont subsidize, then how will the average family of 4 be able to afford to attend a game? Oh wait
Here in Minneapolis in recent years.....
Twins got a new stadium.
Vikings got a new stadium.
Minnesota Gophers football team got a new stadium.
St.Paul Saints got a new stadium.
A new stadium for the soccer team is being built.
The Twins, Gophers and Vikings used to all play in the Metrodome which was paid for.
But now that we spent several billion dollars they each have their own new playhouse for the dozen games they play each year. Of course the Twins needed their own special new playhouse to accommodate the 800 fans they still have
I haven’t been to a game that some corporation did not pay for since 1985 or so..
Good one.
And, now, you are not even allowed to bring in your own food and drink. You need to pony up for vastly overpriced refreshments.
