How so?
Tell me, which events does Calgary not get that Winnipeg gets every time?
I can count a couple, Metallica, Justin Timberlake, that sort.
The problem with your logic is this: You aren't factoring in the other events which sell 4500 more tickets in Calgary than they do in the Peg.
Calgary makes about a million more (assuming 200 dollar ticket prices for the big events they DO get like Elton John, Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, etc) than Winnipeg does for EVERY big event.
Nobody is making stuff up here, no need to get defensive. You're just arguing from a point of ignorance and not really considering all the things you need to be considering.
Does Calgary need a new arena to host the 3-4 events it misses per year? Yeah, they absolutely do. Does Winnipeg need a new arena to make up for the 500,000-1,000,000 dollars of revenue it DOESNT make on EVERY event that comes through there? Uh yeah, they REALLY do.
Again, no need to be defensive, you just need to to be factoring more than the latest Metallica tour.
