NFL lies about Super Bowl benefits
Fred, You are exactly correct. Strip clubs, because they operate 24/7/365 have economic impact. An interesting point about crowding out surrounding a super bowl is exemplified by strip clubs. Because SB patron tend to give huge tips, strippers from around the country want to work in the host community during the event. Strippers pay the club owners for the opportunity to work the event and the club owners chose the pretiest and best endowed dancers from the lot, laying off any less attractive local talent. Hence, the money spent locally is not deposited locally, and the impact is nil. Like the hotel's profits, you swipe your card in the host community but the deposit is made elsewhere.
