can you honestly, and with a straight face, state that a family of 4 will patronize one of the area restaurants; shell out for ballpark parking; and then drop $150 for tickets, souvenirs, programs, snacks and beverages along with some hot dogs in the event anyone is still hungry?
A $40 million stadium will result in $10 tickets plus overpriced accessories and food.
It will not work.
And for the record, and playing the devil's advocate, will all of the construction be performed by area contractors or will it go to an Atlanta based construction firm with ties to the A Braves?
Do the math
