Flashy sports stadia generate money for the teams inhabiting them, therefore they generate campaign donations for the election of people who got them built.
Infrastructure doesn't generate enough ongoing profit for those involved. Infrastructure is more along the lines of a one time bribe or graft under the table to secure the contracts, get it made into a Davis Bacon project so the unions get their cut, that sort of thing.
