I guess it's the season for chatter.

From the article:
"The attraction to the Panthers for Sports Properties is that the BankAtlantic Center, which is owned by Broward County, was the second-highest grossing concert venue in Florida in 2008, and No. 8 in the U.S., according to Pollstar, an industry publication. BankAtlantic Center pulled in $21.9-million in bookings aside from Panthers games in 2008.
What is interesting is that the No. 1 venue in Florida was the St. Pete Times Forum in Tampa, which pulled in $31.8-million in 2008. That was second in the U.S. only to New York's Madison Square Garden."
I guess hockey is an afterthought in this one.
Would it matter to Baghdad Garry? Naw, he just say some B.S. about it being a great day for hockey, i.e. we didn't have to move it to Canada.
