what percent of that stadium by you did taxpayers pay for? like 90 percent of it? not the billionaire owner...etc...?
It was 50/50 State and private funding. And of course once it paid itself off 50% of the future profits did not then go back into the state.

There have been studies on the ROI of stadium investments by public funds and it pretty much shows across the board that they're bullshit scams that allow rich investors to get richer under the pretense of providing (temporary construction and shit-paying permanent) jobs.
