This seemed to get overlooked but I think it is worth mentioning again. A downtown stadium would deter a lot of people that currently go to games, and those I am speaking of is people with families and children. Do they really want to go downtown and be near all the bars and entertainment when all they really want is to see a game? Then have to leave that place in the dark at 10 o'clock at night? There is more people interested in attending games beyond just those whose only concern is a bar and/or walking distance.
