If you live in downtown Fayetteville, you see the event as an occupying force. Those folks have a symbiotic relationship with the University, so football games and the sort are a way of life, no bother. If you have a weekend marked on the calendar as "TIME TO LEAVE TOWN," you're going to resent every part of it. I think we can all agree that having the event on your doorstep is going to fatigue even the best of us.

Also, economic impact analysis is probably the most dubious enterprise. It's usually based on the best performing projection multiplied by businesses. They're also usually sought out by folks who would appreciate high projections, too.

Yeah, while I don't mind BBBQ and see it as an accepted burden, the revenue projections are like a strength and conditioning coach's announcement of offseason 40 times in that it behooves that person/people/institution to propagate high numbers.

I used to at Veltkamp claiming that multiple players were running in the low 4.3s
