I attended my first pro football game last Saturday here in Nashville. I had to clarify to at least one person that, yes, the Nashville Kats are a pro team...they may not get paid as much as an NFL team, but the Arena Footbal League does pay. I discovered where much of their payroll money must come from pretty quickly...I've never been exposed to so much advertising at a sports event in my life! The sales staff must be as big as the team itself, judging from the sponsored "moments," special promotions, souvenir stuff, etc. Truly the capitalist system at its finest...if it moves, sell it.Fun to watch, though, and our team won. Woo-hoo!
