Reply to comment by jonhasglasses in TIL The Super Bowl can generate anywhere from $230 million to $475 million in economic impact for host cities. by BrainInYourButt

Of course. I'm just saying that you moved the goalposts. This wasn't a discussion about public subsidies for stadiums. You argued against the economic impact of a Super Bowl by linking to an article on a different topic.

If you look back at my original comment I wasn’t conflating the two. I was making a comment how the use of impact is an interesting choice because as I know it (and as Stanford has published) sports teams and stadiums don’t have a positive impact on local economies. I didn’t spell it out further but I felt that was a relevant piece of information to the discussion of the economic impact of the Super Bowl.
