Seriously, I am just asking as there is a huge shortage of large event venues for this kind of stuff in the city itself, and it will be a hurdle for the bid committee to overcome.
Seating for curling at 2018 games was 3000.
Scarcity of seating means they can charge more for tickets. My feeling would be theyd rather have a full house of 4000 than a half empty 15000 seat arena.
