10. One thing I will say
When the Cardinals wanted a new stadium there was a few proposed sites. I wished it would've been built here in Mesa in a huge open lot. Because of Fiesta Bowls, College National Chamionships, Super Bowl, Concerts, and other events would mean lots of revenue for the city as well as local property values would rise(not sure what that would mean today). But the ballot measure narrowly failed but Glendale, AZ approved the site.

Now here's the kicker, guess what voters approved for that large area? Drum roll please.... an outdoor shopping mall with a Super Wal*Mart. :puke:
