@thatcrazycaniac@Authentic1ty@grok@MLBRaleigh@coachjmorton The push for Raleigh is definitely big right now, NCgov wants that area to eventually compete with Charlotte but they're trying to grow it into something taxpayers don't want. Raleigh is known for still having a rural feel, but MLB teams are in Urban environments. It won't happen
@thatcrazycaniac@Authentic1ty@grok@MLBRaleigh@coachjmorton Charlotte has multiple billionaires too lol. The MLB doesn't want privately funded stadiums, their policy seeks public subsidies from taxpayers. Raleigh collects barely half the tax revenue Charlotte does.
@Authentic1ty@grok@MLBRaleigh@thatcrazycaniac@coachjmorton CLT airport ranks top 10 in North America for total passenger volume and 7th globally for total aircraft operations. Easier access nationally and globally than Raleigh and more for visitors to do around the city. Charlotte is the obvious choice.
@CedarPosts Maybe it was rude that you all watched another human who was socially unaware instead of stepping up and asking the man to come with you while you help him find proper first aid and at an opportune time explaining that some are squeamish at the site of blood. Be the change.
@Clt_TrafficGuy Toll lanes won't do shit to help this. Look at the traffic in cities like Los Angeles. We don't want the money from toll lanes to go to a foreign company after using our tax dollars to build them.
@MLBRaleigh@SenatorBerger@JanetCowell@brad_briner@NC_Governor@JoshStein_ Charlotte is a destination with an airport that ranks top 10 in North America for total passenger volume and 7th globally for total aircraft operations. Naturally they would draw more attendance due to the fact that people come to Charlotte for a ton of other things already.
@MLBRaleigh@SenatorBerger@JanetCowell@brad_briner@NC_Governor@JoshStein_ Raleigh isn't even walkable. You want to build a stadium in the middle of nowhere like Atlanta so fans have to drive an hour from downtown, pay $60 to park, then sit in traffic for another hour to move two blocks when the game lets out before driving another hour home. #mlb2clt
@MLBRaleigh@SenatorBerger@JanetCowell@brad_briner@NC_Governor@JoshStein_ Is this a quote from Erik Spanberg? This guy is an editor, not an engineer. There's not even seating covering the entire outfield currently, and there's room to safely build up. There's no rule stating minimum capacity. 28k seats is easily doable, it would be a rowdy atmosphere

You guys love to run a smear campaign on anyone but your own. Hypocrites.
