i would put the jai ali in midtown in st pete. there are lots of cheap land around and the people that live nearby like to gamble. you could buy entire city blocks for less than millon dollar. lots of athletes com out of this area and i think they could learn to play jai alai and have alot of fans. i would by a lot near the jai alai and set up a secure parking lot with security and i would make alot of money. i think you could have a roster of 50 guys easy. alot of guys in tampa can play jai alai and we could fill out alot of the spots. i would make the fronton the largest in the country and make alot of slot machines. it would really help the area. they also could have fights featuring winky wright and other local boxers which would make a sellout. only thing is they need tomake sure that no guns are brought into the jai alai, a player getting shot would not be good and you cannt trust some of the gangbangers tonot get mad after losing and taking out a player. the courts over here should help alot with making alo of players be good enough to impress the fans and make a good living. not alot of jobs on the south side of town and this would really help.
