"Skateboard
legend Tony Hawk * is believed to have
received $125,000 for his appearance
Aug. 23" 2002 * at the Argonauts' Field in Toronto *, Canada *.
While "pre-game and halftime entertainment productions have been a resounding success
and greatly responsible for an increase in average attendance from 15,000 to 20,000, the on-field product (the actual winning of football games) has been a major
flop. "
