Be glad it wasn't snowing or raining and a mud parking lot. The Expo center isn't a for profit organization like a shopping mall. I think it is a tax payer partially supported facility. It is not like a high school that can float bonds for upgrades, additions, maintainance. I guess I look at it more like a public golf course that you pay user fees or tolls on the highway. Hopefully the parking fees will be used to repave the parking lot. If you do not like user fees I would suggest not going to Chicago ever and using the tollway. Or do not drive from Emporia to Wichita.
