Think about it. There is a food shortage in food banks in Atlanta, GA. People who attend events at the three major stadiums could donate money to help out. The Georgia Dome can hold 71,250, Phillips Arena can hold 18,545, and Turner field seats 49,831. That is 139,626 people that could donate at least $100 dollars to each food bank, If 139,626 people donated at least $50 dollars to one bank that would be $6,981,300 that one facility could use to help those in need. Think about the costs people pay for parking, fuel, concessions, jerseys and the tickets themselves. Why are sporting events more important to people than social issues? Some people will pay $400 for tickets and not pay $45 dollars for Hooked on Phonics or for piano lessons for their children.
