The Regional Municipality is begging for a pro sports team. The arena isn't just an arena, it'll be an entertainment district too. As for it being a party atmosphere, that type of thinking doesn't matter nearly as you may think it does on a corporate level. It's 100% about logistics, money, and available disposable income for fans to buy tickets. Fort Mac has all of that. It doesn't hurt that they have a brand new international airport now, too.
