[QUOTE="Goldfreak, post: 614724, member: 10082"] I can understand both sides of this debate. A great spectacle but with an economic benefit argument thats often flawed and over hyped. When Adelaide "lost" the Grandpri to Melbourne most people were understandably upset and I have great personal memories of the event here but behind the scenes we were burning serious tax payer cash to run the thing that a small state like ours could never really afford ( confidential payments were just the start ) Still have some nice roads around the CBD left over from it though. Hopefully we can run this olympics with out the credit card. Maybe we will have to bring back cheap events like the sack race or apple bobbing :playful: [/QUOTE]
