I'm replying to a post about high school sports fields. Not known for their profitability. And at least kids can go run around there when a formal practice or game isn't happening.

Not necessarily. Most of the school stadiums near me are closed during school hours. After school they are used by various teams until well after dark. Then, on weekends, they are usually rented out to local athletic leagues (youth and adult) unless the school teams need them.
They are largely unavailable to the general public unless they are willing to pay for exclusive use.
