Considering the average life span of a stadium is 30 years that's a pretty terrible investment as far as I'm concerned.


I agree with the bad return on investment part. I just don't agree with other posters saying that it's zero. I don't have a side one way or the other but if others keep telling me that my out of town money doesn't help them, I can gladly spend it in another town that it will benefit.
