Have you done the math on that over 30 years? That's how long the lease is for, and you can bet any buyout of the contract is going to include covering that cost (regardless of who pays it.)

You guy sthink the money PG county put down for the stadium is a lot?

Run the numbers on the tax revenue they get just from football games. Then try to roughly guess how much they get from college games, concerts, and whatever else they host there ever year. Then multiply it by 30.


You forgot the biggest detail of all. You forgot to subtract expenses (initial and reoccurring). Add up all the expenses on fire/rescue/police/road maintenance/ stadium maintenance/ etc... and subtract it from the revenue.
