It’s entertaining and it pays for itself. No Roman bread and circuses. There is some government investing in stadiums but the smart teams get big corporations to pay for them and name them after the company. Like Citi Field or Minute Maid Park (formerly Enron field...ahem)

Yeah, and even a small panem will set you back $15 at the ball park.
