It’s gonna be a dome/retractable and be a multi-event venue. Taxpayers want a return, and 8 days a year isn’t nearly enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when the practice field under the bubble was built and thinking “Wow! What an upgrade!” I am not suggesting Snyder should build anything resembling “The Star” because his design would probably end up resembling something closer to Potomac Mills Outlet Mall but I think the design should have more of a nostalgic feel similar to what was accomplished in the design of Camden Yards. There was a stadium concept graphic posted in this thread that still gives me night terrors where fans were riding jet ski’s around a moat surrounding the stadium. Hopefully, Tanya has a say in the stadium design. “Help us Tanya …you are our only hope.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's kinda sexist. Funny. But still...well, mostly funny. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love having the NFL equivalent of Camden Yards. Great ballpark, and provides just the right amount of nostalgia. I was hoping if they could get the site of RFK, the D.C. Armory could somehow be incorporated into the new complex like the warehouse was in Baltimore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Nonsense Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 I’m not from the area and I’m interested in seeing how this stadium gets built. Dan is very wealthy but he doesn’t have the kind of money to build his own multi billion dollar stadium and he’s not very popular which means tax payers aren’t in a rush to help fund his stadium. And him putting his wife out front isn’t going to help either. People aren’t that naive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be from the area, you tell me. As for Sofi Stadium, didn’t the Rams owner fund that 100%? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoFi got a huge sum from the NFL itself to get built. Others were part taxpayer part ownership part other loans. Basically if lawmakers see economic potential from events that could boost local businesses as well that would be a reason to invest in a new stadium project. It’s not just about the WFT.

Kroenke funded it through “loans” but ultimately he’s paying for the stadium. All $5.5 Billion. Edited August 29, 2021 by No Nonsense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redskins Reparations Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 (edited) If Mr. Snyder can afford $100,000,000 on The Lady S, then he can afford to build a suitable stadium for the players and fan base. Let’s hope his taste in yachts transfers to the new stadium design. Edited August 29, 2021 by Redskins Reparations 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
