I haven't been to a ton of Brewers' games, but afterward we always end up in a bar just north across the highway. Not quite walking distance, but definitely in the neighborhood. Its usually packed.Originally Posted by Deputy NutzI am a mixed bag on taxation for sporting stadiums.
The Metrodome was a mistake but is it even 30 years old yet?
The Bradley Center is just 20 years old and folks were crying for a new stadium 5 years ago.
As far as building downtown, I think it is the best spot to spark commercial spending for a sporting event. The bars and resturants and stores will benefit to a great extent. Look at Miller Park, it does very little for the surrounding communtiy because there is nothing within walking distance of the Park.
Tailgating is great, but it does little for the commercial community that should benefit when taxpayers have to shell out .01% of sales tax.
I suppose once you get people in a car, they might keep driving though.
That one bar is Kelly's Bleachers, and it is not walking distance. There is a nice stock yard and a couple of broke ass factories you could possibly walk to though.
