6-WBRC: Supporters-Birmingham fans will back USFL

Post by 4th&long »

>> Supporters believe Birmingham football fans will back new league <<

>> The Greater Birmingham Visitors and Convention Bureau’s board of directors committed $2 million to the league to cover operational costs, but Bureau CEO John Oros says Fox Sports wants a $3.7 million commitment. Will people in Birmingham support this league when others have failed? The CEO of the Visitors and Convention Bureau said fans supported the other football teams, it was the league that financially failed. <<

ALSO- Birmingham city budget for 2022 as proposed $455mm

A million $ investment would add .22% to the budget - but will generated $16-21 in added economic value to the city. No Brainer.
