For my capstone project I decided to focus on a topic that has interested me for the past few years. Sports culture has become a staple in the lives of millions of people around the world. One of impacts from sports culture onto society comes from it’s economical standpoint. My curiosity for this topic originated from Mr. Curtis’s economics class where we briefly discussed a few examples. From that moment I knew that this concept begged further investigation, so when it came time for us to start thinking about capstone, I already had a general idea in mind. The guiding question I came up with for my research is “To what extent do professional athletes impact community economies?” I chose to go with the artifact approach and landed on recording a podcast.
