I checked the Stampede's annual financial statements and it isn't specifically called out.
Awesome thanks for that insight. So when people say, "oh flames are leaving cause they want parking revenue", it likely isn't a major issue. $2MM is really not all that material in the overall business. It's something, but not a breaking point for a relationship as some suggest. Good chat mate.
