God damn 800 million feels like a lot for that l.

It doesn’t seem like a very substantial or impressive facility

Looks like city of Rock Hill wasn't going to be strongarmed into spending taxpayer dollars on a multi-billionaire's project.

Yup. I just assumed it was part of some larger entertainment complex or development, but it appears not.

The new Cowboys practice facility that opened a few years ago in Frisco cost over $1 Billion. However, it was part of a nearly 100 acre development that included a 12,000 seat stadium, a hotel, shops, restaurants all in the middle of one of the fastest growing areas in the U.S.

Because it’s a different company. It’s the equivalent of Jeff Bezos filing bankruptcy at the Washington Post and it not effecting Amazon. Two different things.

Just to provide an update, York County is suing Tepper’s businesses AND the City of Rock Hill for misappropriating the money on a failed vanity project.

quote:

York County has filed a lawsuit against several of Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper’s organizations and the city of Rock Hill over the “misappropriation” of $21 million in funds tied to the team facility that was under construction in Rock Hill.

According to the lawsuit, those monies were restricted public funds that were to be used to expand Mt. Gallant Road in York County. Appaloosa Management, DT Sports Holding and Tepper Sports Holding were each named as defendants and are referred to throughout as the “Tepper Defendants.”

County leaders allege in the lawsuit the Tepper Defendants “improperly utilized these funds on their failed vanity project, the Carolina Panthers’ headquarters and practice facility.”

“Both the City and the Tepper Defendants have harmed York County and its taxpayers, and the County should be made whole,” court documents state.

The $21 million came from the county’s Penny Tax Revenue and was designated to expand Mt. Gallant Road between Dave Lyle Boulevard and Anderson Road from two lanes to three, the lawsuit states.
