I was merely pointing out where society's priorities are these days.
You have the kiddos using 40 to 50 year old public school buildings that are falling apart, but you can find a way to build your local pro football team (that can't even make the playoffs consistently) a brand spanking new enclosed stadium to play 8 home games a year in.
Then you're school district sucks at managing resources. In our ISD, the oldest school is 15 years old and was remodeled during the summer of 2022.
I also didn't realize you were so incredibility short sighted. AT&T stadium has had a Super Bowl, NBA All-Star Game, Men's NCAA Regional (twice), Final Four, huge concerts, 3-4 Soccer matches involving national teams from about a dozen different countries over time (or English Premier League teams), high profile college football games, etc. There is something going on in the stadium 200 days a year (average since it opened).
