I wanna pull up their audit report and see how broke they are yet have to have an aquarium, but then I'll just get angry at government even more
That is a tough pill to swallow. If I understand the deal correctly, the City money was a one time deal and not ongoing. The aquarium is for-profit, which will be interesting. They based their numbers on Sci-Port's attendance since they are similar. I really hope it works, but I have my doubts about a for-profit aquarium.
There will be a non-profit aspect, which means they will be able to receive donations to keep some things going. This will be the corporate headquarters for this company, they will be opening similar aquariums in other cities.
