I keep track of every penny - that's what I do for a living and I practice it in my personal life as well. So here is something for the powers that be to chew on:
Since I started hobbying on work trips to Atlanta in 2010 I have contributed the following to the economy:
Providers: $67,550  
Extra hotel nights to stay over to play: $8,904.57
Extra meals due to stay overs: $869.40
Meals shared with providers: $876.80
Incidentals connected to hobbying in ATL: $437.86
Total: $78,638.63 or $11,234.09 per year
That's more than Arthur Blank's Falcon's generate per seat per year and you guys are giving them $200 million - in the words of the late great Kevin Meaney; "that's not right!'  
Rather than  providers being hassled they too should be receiving governmental subsidies.  
From now on when in Atlanta I'm gonna take my blue balls and go home
