Too bad that they are putting it in downtown Buffalo.I won't pay to park to go spend more money at a store.It should be put in the Eastern Hills Mall.Would help bring business like it did to the mall in Auburn.A waste of money in my opinion.

I like the idea of downtown at the waterfront they are even talking about letting you try out a boat right there I do agree about parking hopefully bass pro shops will have there own parking for free ( I'm sure they can afford it )

I don't like the idea of Basspro downtown in Buffalo because there is nothing else to do after you are done.Put it at the Eastern Hills mall and the family will make a day of it.Wife can shop the mall while a guy has fun at Basspro.I also don't like the idea of my tax money going to help start a business.Give me 60 million dollars and I will start a business too.They may bring jobs,but how good are those jobs.Tops gets taxbreaks but only pays about 7 bucks an hour.Not a good tradeoff in my book.If Basspro were to bring in 2000 40-50 grand a year jobs,it might be worth it,but for the 7 bucks an hour,I'll pass.

I don't think that either would work because of the location they are putting it at.Nothing to do after going except going to eat at an expensive restaurant.Will be good for the 1st 6 months but after the novelty wears off it will die in Buffalo.
