The memorabilia that was on display at the National Sports Gallery was 1st class and it was good at the beginning because of the initial media coverage of the opening of the MCI center, but it went downhill pretty fast and after the first year the place was pretty much a ghost town except for when there were parties or around gametime. The other problem is that most of the people who visit a place like that have zero interest in the memorabilia, they are just there to play with the interactive exhibits, which means that they come once, but don't return unless the exhibits are changed often, which is really expensive.
Maybe they should hire me as a consultant........
