I don't love it, but stadiums are often at least partially paid by the government. The argument is economic development. Build a stadium in a city and it will bring in some amount of money. As for how much, I don't really know, but one huge thing this report misses is how much money this spending generated in return. Cut this spending and you shrink the economy, lower tax revenue and lower employment. The question is just: how much?

Oklahoma spends more taxpayer dollars than that on the salaries of the head football coaches of the statte’s flagship universities. Socialist football in one of the reddest states in the country. 

Isn't Football pretty big in Oklahoma.
