A pro hockey team, in Joe-Jah?
When is New Mexico getting its team?
Why not try Houston?
Black people by and large don’t watch hockey. They’ve already failed here on multiple occasions. Whose stupid idea is this one? Atlanta is more black than it’s ever been.
Big Corporations in Atlanta $$$$$$ a shining citadel of Globalism in the South.
People have money to go to professional sporting events yet?
Must be nice. And I do pretty well.
Key fact. Millions of Northerners have fled the rust belt for North GA. They didn’t come here for the football.
Maybe in N GA they can pretend they have the best of both worlds.
This will be the third attempt at a hockey team.
Only this time they’re looking to build an absolutely massive development north of they city in Cumming, Ga. Affluent area. 19,000 seat arena for the team and entertainment.
I think the metro area has a solid 5 or 6 different concert venues. Definitely need another one. Definitely. For sure. Yes. Absolutely.
I’m not so sure the folks up there want it. Taxes are going up and it’s damn near impossible to drive around up there now.
But Kemp and his crew will do their best to piss off more people with their over development, higher property taxes and stuffing 10lbs of poo into a 2lb bag.
I think there are a lot of shysters in Georgia.
They’ve already spit the bit on two teams. Why don’t they give some other city an opportunity?
Cincinnati enthusiastically supported the Stingers of the WHA and, in fact, was the last man out when the NHL absorbed the Nordiques who subsequently relocated and became the Avalanche. Cincinnati still enthusiastically supports a low-level ECHL team by turning out 10,000 a game in a leagues where most “arenas” don’t sit more than 2,500.
Let Cincinnati have a crack at the NHL! Or Houston! Or Charlotte! But never Atlanta. Not again!
