@benfulton @bloomington_in I am puzzled by this, but also kinda cynical. Are there vendors within the convention center who don't want to compete with the surrounding town?
What's the problem with conventioneers "interact[ing] with and patroniz[ing] downtown businesses"? I though that was the main reason for cities to get convention centers.
The only thing that can explain this is in-house protectionism.
