Name: Beijing Olympic Stadium
Scheduled inauguration: 2008
Building costs: $500 million
Capacity: 80,000 seats (100,000 during the Olympic games)
Why? Because we're not Beijing . . . .
We're Franklin, Wisconsin . . ..
We can't have all the structures and buildings that other cities have,
nor should we . . . .
Maybe we need to stop comparing Franklin to every other city and stop
trying to be a WANNABE ....
and instead just be WHAT WE NEED TO BE!
In the meantime .... Beijing National Stadium or
Bird's Nest Olympic Stadium ....
is pretty cool, huh?
Maybe we could model a new Franklin High School football stadium after it ....
Nah .... too many taxpayers would be "unglued" .... (I hope)!
