Why can’t we come up with the cash to fix the TCC? Because no event coordinator has the guts to book a day of entertainment as amazing as the Lincoln Women’s Expo, featuring Leonardo DiCaprio impersonator Frank Roberts. Instead, we get the circus or professional wrestling, two events that would be far better with a little addition of Faux Leo.

Why in the Hell would any body want to come to Tucson with the high taxes on ever thing. There really should be a Sign stating Welcome High Tax State Arizona
They can tax people from out of town or they can tax YOU, which do you perfer
when they don’t come anymore then who do THEY tax then, hmmmmmmmmmm oh I get it us that live here, right GWW. Cut the BS spending and live within their like I have to. my taxes are to high for what I get in return.
I think some folks missed the attempted humor in your post, Dan. I think you have to label the various parts of the joke to accomodate the irony-challenged next time.
I remember some great events at the TCC like Eric Clapton, Santana, Sha-Na-Na, and Paul Revere and the Raiders. I know I am showing my age but they were fun.
For the folks complaining about the high taxes, go back and reread your posts. It’s obvious that you didn’t take advantage of the educational offerings that we once had before our legislature decided to dumb down the populace by defunding education with those taxes.
Proof read and spell check before hitting the submit button or else it makes you come of as an illiterate jerk. Remember, taxes pay for the infrastructure that keeps any civilization going. Things like roads, schools, and yes, even health care for those who can’t afford it.
I think Gcohn said it best. That would be a great improvement. Even having something like Laffs comedy club in there or some broadway type show would be good.
Lenny DeCaprio look alike? He looks better than lenny but why would anyone want to go to TCC to see a look alike and why Lenny?
I’d rather see the guy who does the Jose Jalapeno on a stick puppet show! Now that is awesome.
OR do what they do downstairs at Treasure Island Hotel (I think it was this one) in vegas. They set up an indoor jousting ring. Makes it like the ren faire.
Why don’t we rip down the TCC and give it back to the ethnically diverse residents it belonged to 40+ years ago. Look at what tourism gets us… Here’s to the continuation of shortsighted plans.
