    Vegas local here…Tropicana location is a horrible place for a ballpark. Also the designs look like crap. If you want to put it on the strip why not do something like Toronto has where you can watch the game from your hotel room? I’ve been thinking this is a bad from the start. 380 million is all they got from the stadium deal. They won’t get anymore from us I can tell you that!

  • @robertgriffin822
    @robertgriffin822 23 วันที่ผ่านมา

    We know all (most) building projects will go over budget, but this has the potential to really sail over what was expected, making the $380M public money value almost irrelevant. BTW, how does an entire state only come up with $380m anyway? One single poor city in California on its own came up with almost $500m! Albeit, 500 more then they ever should have

    Asking $2B for a franchise that the buyer then needs to finance a stadium and no (current) clear home market is nuts. I'm sure investors are walking away. How much equity does one get for $500M? 12.5%? Any at all? Massive overvaluation of the franchise.

    Greedy owners over paid players .......going to a game can cost a small fortune to maybe see your favorite players or players who take days off? If the A's move fine.......they come back to oakland fine ...if they drown in Sacramento fine.....I will watch the minor league teams who have a hunger for the game.....and it doesn't take a small fortune to enjoy what was once America's past time.

    Don't blindly believe some of the rumors. VV has made some ridiculous comments about this. Vit Dee is a Bay Area person who claims attending an annual Las Vegas convention makes him an expert, privy to confidential plans of Las Vegas investors or prospective investors. There are people on the net who love spreading rumors. Believe what you want.
