The New York Islanders are getting a new arena built at Belmont Park. They won the bid fair and square and the process is supposed to get started next month. Now, like anything, there are people who oppose this idea.
Usually every few months we see a tired take on Twitter about why it would be bad for the Islanders to move to Elmont. This one might take the cake though. The tweet says:
Cross Island Parkway after Stakes. A proposed arena and mega mall project will bring more congestion on top of regular rush hour weekday traffic.
