And then there are the smaller cities that I referenced like Syracuse and Iowa City that want to kind of create more of a nighttime economy, more of a nightlife scene.
In New York, they estimate that the nightlife economy generates something like $35 billion a year, supports thousands of jobs.

That can be at the municipal level, town level, entire state level, and that really limits access.
Definitely.
