To me the model should be minor league baseball. Don’t know many people who follow the Yardgoats in the traditional sense. Or really even follow the players.  But the minors have managed to get many second tier cities to build ball parks and it is a money making proposition. They draw very good crowds

There are a bunch of civic centers that don’t have major tenants in those cities. You’d have to pick your spots too. Not Hartford or Bloomington or other places with major college programs. You won’t compete. But maybe Worcester or Manchester NH would work in New England. Maybe Harrisburg or Akron. I honestly don’t know but with the right marketing plan who knows. I could see it being successful and I hope it will be. The kids who want to go to college to go to college, not to kill a year until the NBA draft can do so. Those who don’t can and should go here.

I agree on the 16 -17 year olds though. On the other hand if you are a parent and you let your kid do this, there is something wrong with you.
