    it I .Aw Baseball players pass the time at an Orange County Gas Station , circa 1939. Not Just Fun and Games Anymore: Pro Sports as an Economic Development Tool by J. Barlow Herget and Mike McLaughlin 2 NORTH CAROLINA INSIGHT Local officials-armed with claims of impressive economic impact-are going to bat for professional sports franchises and single-shot sporting events like never before in North Carolina. Even state government has gotten into the act with the establishment of a Sports Development Office in the Department of Economic and Community Development.' But how much impact can sports really have on the economy of a commu- nity? The North Carolina Center for Public Policy Research explores this question and finds that the economic impact of a professional sports franchise or event can be very real. The NBA's Charlotte Hornets, for example, have been a boon to the City of Charlotte, providing substantial economic impact and enhancing the city's image. Minor league sports are more likely to have a minor impact, although they help round out a city's entertainment offerings. Local officials are advised to proceed with caution when negotiating leases with sports franchises or invest- ing funds for stadium construction. is The Charlotte Hornets are a National Basket- her staff were calling on the executive ball Association team and the only major league of an out-of-state company that the city professional sports franchise in the state of North Thewas mayor courting of Charlotte,to relocate Suein Myrick,North Caro- and Carolina.
