Metropolitan Statistical Area

College of Saint Benedict & Saint John’s
University
April 23, 2016
1
Introduction
β€’ Professional sports have grown dramatically in
the past 25 years
β–« 46 Stadiums constructed or renovated between 1990 and 1998,
and 49 more planned as of 2000 stated by John Siegfried and
Andrew Zimbalist
β–« Estimated cost of $21.7 billion
β–« Close to two-thirds will be paid by public funds

Question
β€’ What impact does a professional sports team
and stadium have on its host metropolitan
statistical area (MSA)?
β–« Impact measured by change in real aggregate
personal income
β–« Results: Across all Midwest region MSA’s
stadiums and professional football teams have a
statistically significant negative effect

Literature Review
β€’ Professional sports boosters vs. economics
literature
β€’ Baade, Baumann, and Matheson (2008) explain
the issue of crowding out
β€’ Baade (1996), describes the increased goods and
services provided by stadiums
5
Literature Review cont.
β€’ Coates (2007) argues that new stadiums and
professional sports teams redistribute economic
activity
β€’ Coates supports the claim that stadiums can be
used as a tool to redevelop areas because of
increased property values.
6
Theory/Conceptual Model
β€’ Indirect benefits come into question when studying
economic benefit of stadiums and teams
β–« Multiplier effect: Team revenues are expected to flow
through the metropolitan area
β–« Leakages: Revenues flow out of the MSA’s
β–« Substitution effect: Leisure time and money would be spent
β€’ These effects can not be directly measured, but are the
driving force behind the impacts of stadiums and
professional sports teams

Variable Description
π‘Œπ‘–π‘‘
The MSA’s real aggregate income (in 2014 dollars, and measured in thousands of
dollars)
𝑃𝑂𝑃𝑖𝑑
The MSA’s population
𝑆𝑇𝐴𝐷𝑖𝑑
A dummy variable which has a value of 0 before renovation or construction of a
stadium within the MSA and a value of 1 after renovation or construction
𝐹𝑂𝑂𝑇𝑖𝑑
A dummy variable which has a value of 0 when a National Football League team is
not present in the MSA and a value of 1 otherwise
𝐡𝐴𝑆𝐸𝑖𝑑
A dummy variable which has a value of 0 when a Major League Baseball team is
not present in the MSA and a value of 1 otherwise
𝑇𝑅𝐸𝑁𝐷𝑑
A variable assigned a value of 1 for 1984 and going up to 31 for 2014
π‘Œπ‘–π‘‘/π‘Œπ‘…π‘–π‘‘
The fraction of real aggregate personal income when compared to the Midwest
Region of the United States (region defined by Bureau of Labor Statistics United
States Census)
𝑃𝑂𝑃𝑖𝑑
𝑃𝑂𝑃𝑅𝑖𝑑
The fraction of regional population represented by the MSA (region defined by
Bureau of Labor Statistics United States Census)
Data Sources
β€’ Income and Population Data collected from the
Bureau of Economic Analysis (Personal income,
population, per capita income)
β–« MSA level from 1984-2014
β–« Income changed to 2014 dollars using Consumer Price
Index from the Bureau of Labor Statistics
β€’ Dummy variables collected manually through
respective professional team’s website
β€’ Panel data was formed from All MSAs

β€’ The lack of variability of the dummy variables

teams

β–« Arenas vs Stadiums
β–« Other U.S. Regions and Internationally
18
Conclusions
β€’ Newly constructed or renovated stadiums and
National Football League teams have a small
statistically significant negative impact on their
host MSA
β€’ Local governments should be cautious when
investing public funds
