Why not? Your taxpayer dollars fund those stadiums to the tune of over a billion dollars

The All Mighty Coveted “STADIUM”
What do cities now do with such white elephants?
A LOT of money to spend on a waste dump. But that,in essence, is what was done. Grab your NFL ‘stuff’, bag it, put all bags in the back of your pick up truck, drive over and deposit at the gate, at the doors, or on the roof (if, indeed, it has one).

Good idea. After all, the conversation has become less about the great corporate work we do and more about politics.

I really do think we need to cancel our stadium gathering. We don't want to send the wrong message.

I see what you did there. 😊

Yeah, just like why all the corps, including the PGA, who refused to have events at Trump’s Palm Beach resort. Too political. Well, it is now too political for me to show up at any stadium that hosts the NFL games, at taxpayer expense.

Domed stadiums can be quite useful in ways other than supporting sporting events or corporate shindigs. Remember hurricane Katrina? The Superdome provided shelter from the storm for tens of thousands. In the event of mass civil unrests, these facilities could be used for interment as depicted in the classic Bruce Willis film “The Siege”.
