Good culture in Charlotte
Large Pokemon go player base
Efficient light rail for travel to downtown, restaurants, and shopping centers

Niantic continues to ignore the massive potential of Charlotte while they focus on cities that clearly lack our infrastructure and transit access. We have the parks and the stadiums ready to go but these corporate suits at Niantic refuse to acknowledge the obvious logic of our location. I am taking our demand directly to their regional office since their social media team keeps looking the other way.

This would be more realistic if this was for 2019. There's not enough time to get 15,000 signatures, send it to Niantic, have them discuss it, and contact alot of businesses and establishments to work out some kind of deal to have the event there. This is a fail to start with. Plus, with way more well known and attractive cities out there in the US, they won't come to Charlotte. Not to mention they haven't done an event in New York or Los Angeles, which are the top 2 well known cities in the United States.
