How can you say disagree when I said BYOB was removed to eliminate danger from full cans being tossed? You can still get plowed only you don't have to carry it in now. You may still have a wrongful death suit. On that topic, it is called insurance. You pay for it, so use it once in a while.
As for the lost revenue, it is more than gambling. Tix cost about $60 bucks and then the people buy beer, food, memorabilia, etc. I bet each infield head is valued at near $100 to MJC. That multiplied by the near 50k drop caused by the change in policy adds up to $5M. You can chose to lose whatever you want, but MJC and MD racing needs the $5M.
