FB - stadiums

[Loyal Coug1]

OK, a little off-topic but at least FB-related. I just don't understand shit like this. I mean look at that place - WTF is wrong with Soldier Field? Not enough luxury boxes? Seats too skinny for all the fat fans? IMHO, us entitled Americans have our priorities so F-ed up. Add more seats like the big college programs? OK. Completely demolish a huge stadium because why? Not to add seats. Hell I thought the Kingdome was just fine.

1. It’s progress. 2. There’s usually a payoff for the owners and the city.

I’m sure your computer from 1993 still works fine, why is it occupying space in a landfill now? Cuz it sucks compared to a basic $400 Costco machine now.

What is bullshit is when owners hold the city hostage with new stadium demands (ie OKC ownership group that shoplifted the Sonics). I think it’s great when it’s a collaborative effort between the city and the owners and there’s investment from both.
