Getslow Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 The latest city to suffer the wrath of a league that thrives on public tax dollars. Vegas will shell out the hundreds of millions in public subsidy that Oakland refused. Pay your ransom or lose your team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adding $1.50 per day to room charges to pay for it...we (visitors) will be paying for it not the locals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumper_Dad Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Stadium may have more suites than any stadium in history, due to expected demand from Casinos. Casinos are expected to grab as many as possible for big rollers, celebrities and promotions. I heard one discussion where they said that Casinos could end up buy the majority of tickets to package with room packages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Las Vegas is uniquely situated to increase taxes when necessary. It's definitely helped them here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I believe the Bengals will play there in 2021. Not sure about the Steelers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
