The NASCAR Hall of Fame is a Bust

The NASCAR Hall of Fame in Charlotte, NC is not the success it was supposed to be. The multi million conglomerate is empty on most weekdays and even on the weekend, the crowd is lacking in numbers.

Charlotte promised NASCAR the world in exchange for the rights to have the Hall of Fame in the city. The promises included only one dollar rent, per year, if they would decide to allow Charlotte to build the Hall of Fame there.

What a waste. Libraries are closing early on most day and on Sunday and Monday, they are not open at all. What is more important; a big empty build or access to the library?

For Charlotte, it is the big empty NASCAR Hall of Fame Building.
