St. Louis failed in its bid to host the U.S. Olympic swimming trials at the Dome at America's Center. Thank goodness! It would have been embarrassing after what I saw attending the trials last week in Indianapolis.
Their downtown has numerous hotels and restaurants, safe plentiful parking, all within walking distance of the Lucas Oil Stadium. A world-record attendance of 22,000 fans enjoyed this event, and it was on prime-time television nightly.
Our hopeless St. Louis politicians need to visit Indianapolis to see what they’re doing right. We need to do better here!
