I'm actually all for tax-payer money going towards building a couple of stadiums. I pay for new interchanges in areas of the city I never use. My taxes go towards a school system, but I don't have kids. I pay for road upgrades and hospitals in Edmonton or Red Deer that I will also never use. Therefore I am all for my money going towards something that I will definitely benefit from, even if someone else won't.
Obviously, it shouldn't be 100% funded by tax payers, but a portion of it would be fine by me.
