You’ve got two possible paths for that tourism:
Either it was driven by the show, which means your bubble just burst, hope you don’t know anybody that went in debt to capitalize on it in the future.
Or the bubble continues, which means it wasn’t driven by the show.
And frankly, other analysis have been done that include things like tourism bumps, the verdict is in. Giving incentives to TV programs is a money LOSER, even with tourism bumps that usually don’t happen. Sorry unless Nashville bucks ALL the trends the “investment” was 100% completely wasted, they ALWAYS lose money.
The investment has already been paid back 10-fold. Case closed.
Ideology is good. Reality is better.
