Steve

How are you guys doing today?

I'm doing wonderful.

I just wanted to just talk a little bit

Not about the politics or anything in the stadium, but logistics.

So the site in Hammond is technically closer to Soldier Field than the site in Arlington Heights.

And a lot of people are saying, well, we don't want to drive, we don't want to pay the tolls to get to Hammond and all this stuff.

It's literally closer.

It's faster also when you get on the tollway and the skyway and stuff.

So I'll give you an example.

I've worked for the athletic department for over 40 years at Notre Dame.

Every home game, you can walk out in our lot, and you will see literally thousands of Illinois plates.

None of them are complaining that they have to take the toll road in, which 99% do, and that it's a 90-minute or more drive to get to South Bend.

They're there to enjoy the football game, and they're having a great time.

I've never heard anybody complain that, Oh, we have a drive.

We had to pay the tolls.

It's so far.

It, it, it, a football game is like a mini vacation.

People will pay what, whatever the, it, I go to the bears games.

I've been going for over 50 years.

You know, I never thought I'd pay $15 for a beer in my life.
