One last thing - Burke mentioned Garth Brooks in that video. Does no one remember 2012 when he played in Calgary, but NOT Edmonton? Or pretty much anywhere else for that matter? Saddledome didn't seem to be an issue then...
If a once-in-a-lifetime statistical outlier is often trotted out as your biggest piece of evidence of economic impact, you might be selling snake oil. Wake me up when the Brooks shows or anything similar become an annual thing.
