Sporting events, like the ones hosted at this venue are a shameful waste of money. How bad off is the school system? It's literally failing to measure up to what it was in the 80's and 90's. Meanwhile, we richly reward a bunch of grown adults, who put on silly clothes and throw a ball around.

I am not decrying sports in general. I believe sports should be part of school, including college. After graduation, all sports should be on a volunteer basis, and any revenue generated should be given to local schools. Teachers should be paid like athletes are.
