No all nude drinking establishments and no gambling. There are about three OK restaurants to go around and some really 2nd rate hotels probably without 24/7 porn channels. Bogus is a family resort so that won’t attract the hot ski crowd. Plus we are rapidly falling from our perch on “the best places to live” list. But hey, that might be a good reason to build a convention center. How many places are there with bonafide convention centers that you would really want to live near. Most convention centers in metropolitan areas are built in the marginal parts of a city, not in the heart. My bet is we already have a convention center in the heart of the city. It’s called the BoDo Edwards theater. When that poorly planed idea go’s south, the brilliant minds that run this community will bail it out at tax payers expense and re-invent the building as the “New Boise Convention Centre at BoDo”. While we are at it, why don’t we just rename the city, drop Boise, since almost everyone calls it “Boyzee” anyway, and call it BoDo.com
