just don't get how teams/cities can justify that cost for a baseball stadium. Football stadiums, maybe, but there are limitations to what you can do and what events you can host with a baseball stadium
If the 2B price tag includes an entertainment district it makes it easier to swallow

Football stadiums are even bigger money pits for cities.
You have to block out like 6-7 months for only football, so city cannot draw in events, because they have to bid on events beforr knowing NFL schedule.
Studi s have been done, cities get raped by pro franchises when they pay for stadiums. The tif and tax credits alone stick it up their arse

No it doesn't. Cookie-cutter entertainment districts are a way to fleece support for new stadium projects, and then justify raising prices across the board for fans.
