If you are pointing to the concerts as the revenue, I have to remind you that it's the artists/performer who nets most of that money, not the venue.
I'm almost 100% sure that NJ lost money during the Super Bowl.

As per norm, Giantone doesn't know what he's talking about. Most cities lose out with new stadiums. The studies have been done.
I can post many articles and reports saying the same thing. It's all contradictory to what the NFL promises.

AS I pointed out NY/NY didn't I did not say all and as always you are getting things mixed up again ,we were talking about financing the stadiums not infrastructure and up in NY/NJ it was the NY/NJ Metropolitan stadium authority that was responsible for the infrastructure .AS for making money the statement was made that the only people making money on New Stadiums were the" owners,builders and players" and I said that wasn't and still isn't true now I'll admit it might not be in the billions but NY/NJ MSA is making some money off the concerts and other events ,who do you think gets the parking money ?I guess you think that the restaurants bars and hotels made no money during the Superbowl that they additional traffic doesn't pay tolls on the turnpike ???
