Link to July 17 Indianapolis Star article, "Pacers get first bite of $33.5M pie".
Excerpt: The deal has been greeted with scathing criticism from some Indianapolis residents, who argue the city should not provide money to the team, particularly when government entities -- such as the libraries and the bus system -- are grappling with hard-hit budgets.
No one from the public showed up Friday to protest the vote or plan. [Emphasis added.]
