That being said, I wouldn’t want to have my living dependent on Orioles attendance for the rest of this season.
You’re right trailerpark badass - that’s liberal elite ‘logic’... to “revitalize” inner city crime ridden neighborhoods with stadiums. That ‘solution’ works in the make-believe world of the clueless white liberal elite.
The world where ‘intentions’ trump reality.
Why build stadiums in inner city black hellholes? What’s the logic?
If the land is cheap - but half the people who might attend stay home out of fear - it’s a bad economic choice.
My guess is someone (or a government group) is ‘sweetening’ the pot by offsetting costs - making it cheaper to build the stadium IF it’s built in a crime ridden black neighborhood.
Who wins?
The usual vile suspects win - - unions, Team owners (they don’t care who shows up because the big money is made selling broadcast rights), black self-appointed ‘leaders’ (ever wonder why there are no self-appointed leaders of other races?? I know...), and white liberal elites.
The people who lose are blacks who live in that community (extra traffic, noise, trash on the streets - with no offsetting benefits - really - how many lower class families can spend $300 for a night out with the kids?). Also middle class people of all races lose - people who might want to attend stadium events - - but are afraid of venturing into black inner city hellholes... and yeah - that includes black middle class families.
