Local tourism rose in year without Chargers
Don: Just glancing at a few articles, it appears that worldwide, porn is approaching $100 billion as an industry. The NFL is what, an $11 or $12 billion industry? Also, again on a quick glance, U.S. expenditures on porn is approaching (or has surpassed) the $11-12 billion figure. Porn seems to be doing better than the NFL, IMHO. At least the porn industry doesn't have CTE or concussion issues to worry about. I guess.— January 16, 2018 11:33 a.m.
Local tourism rose in year without Chargers
Don: As I am sure you are aware, there are many fans of other teams living in San Diego and Southern California. I never meant to infer that thousands were coming in from out of town each home game, but thousands of local fans of many other teams would, and did, buy individual tickets from season ticket holders. That is even more obvious since the move to Carson--that, or ticket brokers will continue buying lots of tickets to resell in StubHub Center.— January 15, 2018 11:16 a.m.
Local tourism rose in year without Chargers
Don: Actually, good tickets were always available, but many local season seat holders always sold many of those tickets for inflated values. I have friends who had 4 season tickets--2 for them, and 2 to sell to out-of-town fans. Did it for years, and usually made enough money on the 2 sold season seats to pay for all 4 again the following season. One of the reasons why there were many fans of visiting teams at Chargers home games here.— January 15, 2018 7:46 a.m.
Local tourism rose in year without Chargers
Interesting in that IIRC, the Tilted Kilt in Mission Valley closed last year, and basically blamed it on the Chargers moving to Carson. I don't think the U-T went back over that today (I figured they might as the reason given for closing was specifically the Chargers leaving), but what is also interesting is the OTHER Tilted Kilt closed a few months ago downtown--the one right next to Petco Park. It would appear the TK franchise had more problems locally than just the Chargers leaving.— January 14, 2018 6:21 p.m.
