    I 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.
    Really? 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.

    I suppose once you get people in a car, they might keep driving though.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

      The Delta Center (now Energy Solutions Arena) is the same age, and I think it's still one of the best arenas in the NBA. I wasn't impressed at all with the Bradley Center even when it was brand new.

      Some of these arenas and stadiums just weren't designed very well. The new Soldier Field. The Alamo Dome. Arco Arena. The Metrodump. It's not age that is making them obsolete.
      I don't think its the dumpiness of the BC that is causing problems. Its the revenue generation. Its behind all the little games, sideshow attractions and seating arrangements that drive revenue in newer arenas. At least that's the version I have been getting on Milwaukee radio.

        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.
