Denver, Colorado - A study by the University of Northern Colorado found:

                     The Denver Broncos generated $117.8 million in
direct and indirect
                     economic activity in 1994.

And how much would have been generated by the money being spent on other
activities like shopping, movies, restaurants, ect?  Did this money just
magically appear because the Broncos were here?  "Oh look honey, since
we are blessed with the Broncos, God has seen fit to drop $100 on us
that we would not have had otherwise".  No, since this is DISCRETIONARY
INCOME, it would have been spent somewhere other than Mile-High.  The
big benefit comes when money is brought in from OUTSIDE the area.  Since
the vast majority of all tickets to Bronco's games are locked up by
season ticket holders who are area residents, the real economic impact
is much, much less than $117 million.  By the way the statement doesn't
say that there was $117 million in economic activity in Denver or even
Colorado.  I'm willing to bet the figure includes Bronco's spending
outside of Colorado, such as T-shirts in Buffalo, and people traveling
to San Diego to roll the game in with a little side vacation.

-The Super Bowl: The Super Bowl is the most prestigious sporting event
in the
-                world and attracts visitors and television viewers
around the globe. A possibility
-               exists that Denver could host a Super Bowl if a new
stadium is built. Several cities
-                that have hosted the Super Bowl in the past studied the
game's impact on their
 -               local community.

Umm, I guess you haven't heard the news:  there is no dome in the
plans.  I repeat, there
will be no dome.  No dome. No dome. No dome.  No Super Bowl.  No Super
Bowl.
No Super Bowl.  Got it?
