The county owns the stadium, the team owner is already paying lease. The fact he's willing to give anything further for renovations is extremely generous.
Imagine going to your landlord and saying "isn't it time you renovated my house already? I want another floor and a water dispenser in my fridge door. I'll even pay some of it geez. "

Trickle down economics.

If you put water in a bucket, it'll stay in the bucket until you put a few holes in it.

Yeah, we footed the fucking bill for the Vikings and what happened? Still a shitty team, with a eyesore of a facility smack dab in the middle of downtown.

Heh tax funded stadiums seem to be an issue everywhere.

I guess these guys know that the Government often likes to invest money into them to stimulate tourism and the economy. Yet it often doesn't really seem worth the cost and it's always the rich people who still benefit the most.

We already did. And then some. The Hunts have owned the team since the late 1950s. All the revenue earned was paid by fans.

ALSO: Doh-ho-ho, look at these adorable little scamps profiting off of the pandemic and inflation, how sweet. Looks like the American people have more than done their share of carrying you fat whales.

Worth 25bn, won't even pay for 800m for what I'm sure is a major source of their own income.

The wealthy are truly reprehensible.

Being a billionaire should be viewed as a symptom of a pathological disorder.
