    Bamboo grows and spreads fast and is very hard to remove as it builds a strong network of underground roots. You need very heavy machinery to get rid of it.

      The perfect plan. They definitely won’t have any heavy machinery when they show up to start construction on a new sports arena.

        Lol, yes. I can’t imagine that it would help much, but it would definitely be annoying. Especially for the parking lot. Imagine that instead of basically flattening the ground and pouring asphalt over it, you’d have to tear apart a thick bamboo forest yard by yard. Also they’d need to make really sure to remove all of the bamboo, or else it could grow back, maybe even through the asphalt.
