Isn’t the millions and millions we pay in forced taxes enough ( whether we want to or not) support? Social media will having nothing to do with retaining this event. If they are desperate enough for this, then I suspect it’s already gone.
And then Indy will wither away …. Oh wait, it’ll be fine, just like if the stadium had never been built.
They CVB and Sport Corp need to make sure to pay Irsay……
Indianapolis’ history over the past 50 years or so, has been built on “public-private” partnerships and the entire hospitality industry and convention/sports hosting success is because of the commitment to build and improve on facilities like Bankers Life Fieldhouse, Victory Field and Lucas Oil Stadium.
Without these facilities, no hospitality or sports business and the only attraction might be the largest morgue in the state
Maybe some missed this portion of the article.
“For Indianapolis, the Big Ten Football Championship often serves as a capstone for each year’s major sporting events. It often brings 65,000 fans to the city and generates $25 million or more in economic impact, Myer said.”
This event helps fill hotel rooms (taxes/jobs), fill restaurants (taxes/Jobs), rent cars (taxes/jobs) etc.
Not to mention the TV coverage which helps put Indy in positive light when it comes to business owners who might decide to either relocate and or expand their current company here.
Move it to LA
It is the second safest major city in America…. Might make more sense
