Re: Redskins Mayor Trying To Get Team Back To D.C.
IF they build a stadium at the RFK site, it's not likely to hold MORE people than Fed Ex does. So do the math folks.
To keep the same level of revenues, ticket prices will have to go UP. Add to that the fact that the Redskins own Fed Ex Field so they don't pay rent except to themselves.
At any new stadium, there would have to be some kind of lease costs to the Skins as tenants even if it is a sweetheart deal. That increase in costs would mean ticket prices will have to go UP.
So how is this ticket price INCREASE going to assure more hard-core fans and fewer of the corporate folks who are there to be seen there and not to see the game there?
