No, at least in my city people drive into the stadium and drive home to the suburbs after. They have easy access to the interstates. The economic impact seems pretty middling to me.
- lolinder 2y agoYou know this because you've done extensive research, surveying businesses around the stadium to find out what their books look like on days where there are sporting events and on days where there aren't? Or are you just basing it on the fact that traffic is thicker to and from the stadium on days where there are sporting events?
- op00to 2y agoThe only businesses around the stadiums are a casino and refrigerated warehouses. I’m basing this on going to games at these stadiums for 20 years, and never visiting the refrigerated warehouses afterwards. Everyone hops on the public transit if they live in the city or drives home to the suburbs afterwards.
