A cover charge for Venice?

Maybe we can charge for seats, and parking, and entry INTO Clemson itself. I smell Clemson Chamber of Commerce NIL revenue...
"Venice is set to trial an entry fee this summer in a bid to ease overcrowding in the historic center.
From June 2022, daytrippers will have to pay up to €10 to enter the canal city. This will be tested for a six-month period with a view to bringing the fee in permanently from 2023.
But with Venice currently heaving with tourists who have flocked to see the renowned Biennale art exhibition, here are some alternative spots to enjoy away from the crowds."

And we were there in May. Can't imagine what it's like during the summer peak.
Maybe that could pay for the flood mitigation work they need.

There were some people at the main tourist destinations but not too many. This seems more of a money grab then trying to keep the amount of people down.

10 euros is what, 33 cents? Seems like this could easily be mitigated through additional equity in your residence. A few more mortgage payments and they can delay the trip a little more to cover the cover charge at the door.

Roughly the same value as rocks, sticks, and glass beads.
