We don't need to spend $200m on a new arena for $10m weather museum startup

 September 19, 2023

Today's episode of can you believe the arena-entertainment district hype? 

A weather museum and experience venue WOULD be something new and Unique in Norman.  Next to the airport makes sense because the YFAC (Young Family Athletic Center) will draw folks and this could be an add on to their visits for sport competitions.  

We don't need to build an arena to support this sort of project.  It does not have to be an addon to a $200 million public investment. From statements made previously, they are looking for $10 million public subsidy to attract donations.  

Has anyone seen the feasibility study for this? I would be interested in the details of the revenue and cost estimates.
