Thread: Cajundome to seek help

  1. Louisiana Campus Cajundome to seek help


     UL - The Cajundome is preparing to ask the Lafayette City-Parish Council for up to $250,000 to carry the arena through lean economic times.

    “It will be the first time in the Cajundome’s 23-year history that something like this has happened,” Cajundome Director Greg Davis said Monday.

    Lafayette and the University of Louisiana at Lafayette operate the Cajundome under a joint agreement. The city already offers an annual subsidy of up to $500,000 for the facility’s roughly $5 million annual budget.

    I'm not sure where/when the rising food cost come into play, but a bottle of water was $4 at the Top 28. You can go to Sam's and get the same thing for under a $1.

    During my visits to the Top 28, I was wishing the city would provide me with some additional money to offset my rising cost for attending the event.

    Shut it down...let's go back to the Blackham. The Dome is a useless facility anyway.
