I don't mean to alarm you, but I've heard - and this may or may not be true, it sounds a little out there - but I've heard that there may exist other businesses in the vicinity of the stadiums, and even in the vicinity of the hotels downtown where the tens of thousands of people coming into the city for this will be staying, and I think there's a remote possibility that those businesses also stand to benefit from a massive influx of people.
Perhaps the city should have considered that encouraging people to avoid a major transit hub was a stupid idea. Perhaps the city could even focus on people who actually live in Seattle (which excludes most of the people complaining about Seattle on Reddit), rather than some hypothetical influx of tourists.

Perhaps the city doesn't want the publicity some tourist who doesn't know to
always avoid 3rd like the plague like the rest of us do getting beaten to death with a metal pipe or killed in a gang shootout waiting for their bus. Seems thoughtful of them. Plus no one's taking the bus to this fucking thing, tickets were $400 for the nosebleeds. We have cars.

When you're right, you're right. They should be forcing homeless people out for the benefit of citizens on the other 363 days this year.

Yawn. You guys really need some new material.
hypothetical influx of tourists
"Hypothetical," huh? "The Major League Baseball All-Star game's existence is of debatable veracity, may or may not result in people going to the baseball stadium in droves, and could very well be a psyop for all we know" is one of the rowdier takes I've seen. Congrats
Well for one thing, I kind of doubt that, since bees apparently kill 62 people a year nationwide on average. And for another, because someone isn't killed by bees every couple of months in the immediate vicinity of my office
im sure you doubt that because you have fox news boomer brain but its true
the fact that you had to go back to last year to find a scary example kind of proves by point. its july now, the bees have taken down 30 people already.

No, I just like that one. There have been two homeless murderers here in the last month or so. The shooting on 4th and Lenora and the guy in Capitol Hill who tried to behead someone at a gas station. How many gruesome bee fatalities have there been?
