Are you factoring in the opportunity cost of the wasted (poor optimized) space? Of all the extra fuel people have to burn to get around said wasted space? What about the long term environmental impacts?

Wasting land is only cheaper because the real costs get put on the rest of society and future generations.

No, and neither are the people building/paying for the stadium

This is a big reason why many US city budgets are fucked. So much prime taxable real estate given over to parking lots that don’t generate anywhere nearly as much money for the public, but the market doesn’t care about that particular externality.

I agree 100%. Public transport is the only sensible approach to getting people to stadiums. If it were my choice I wouldn’t provide parking at the venue at all.
