ProSpeaking practice
Public Funding for Professional Sports Stadiums
You are watching a professional baseball game in Roskwell, a prairie town in Saskatchewan. A spectator you have never met, Caleb Nolin, introduces himself. He mentions that the Roskwell Comets want the town to help pay for a new stadium. Some residents welcome the prospect of more visitors and a place to gather, while others would prefer the town to spend that money on services used by more residents. Caleb asks for your opinion.
