I'm going to go ahead and predict we don't get the mythical large list of businesses that close because of BBBQ
You can have that list right after you show me the massive bump in tax revenue from an event that allegedly brings (lol) 60 million into the local economy. Surely that makes a massive impact in sales tax collections and can be easily demonstrated with available sales tax data.

Letter from Executive Director
The 2013 rally was just lots of fun, and we can’t wait for the 2014 rally, which will mark the 15th anniversary of Bikes Blues and BBQ. So, do you suppose we’ll have some special things going on to celebrate that milestone? Well, heck yes!
But the most important thing to us is the funding of local charities. Following the 2013 rally, organizers passed out checks totally $114,000 to local charities. And, in addition the rally helped generate another $94,000 to other local charities in a variety of ways. That charitable aspect along with boosting the local economy (oh, an economic impact of somewhere between 69 and 80 million dollars) is what the rally is truly all about. Well, that and throwing one of the best parties in the country.
So, mark your calendar for 2014
Closer to 80 million dollars, proof right there, he said it.
