Very true...and Omaha lost money on Nats.....
Too bad, too, because the setup was perfect for skaters, with the hotel just a short enclosed walkway from the rink & both competition/practice rinks under the same roof. I heard skaters say they literally could walk in their pajamas to the rink and then change there. And the airport is just 15 minutes away, if that. Omaha has had huge success in the same facilities with swimming trials, national volleyball and international equestrian events; i don't know why my city didn't support skating.
