ACW Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d8268ad55/article/nfl-will-help-49ers-pay-for-new-stadium-in-santa-clara The team and Santa Clara announced in December that they'd received an $850 million loan to cover most of the estimated $1 billion cost The rest of the cost will be covered by the league's loan ($200 million), a hotel tax and Santa Clara's redevelopment funds. Hey, here's an idea, why doesn't the TEAM pay for it :idea:You know, like the Giants/Jets did. Unfortunately, it's all too rare I hate sports extortion :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Giants and Jets are 2 teams. Unless you want the Raiders to help out. I just don't understand why it takes so much money to build a stadium. 1 Billion dollars? People in Santa Clara won't even feel the hotel tax. It comes from tourists. I lived in Florida for many years and they were always raising the bed tax on hotels all the time to pay for something. I never even noticed it.
