People severely overestimate what amenities the typical football stadium offers. This is not the NFL, and NFL like additions simply aren't realistic. McMahon needs work, but it's certainly nowhere near the point of needing total replacement.
And the Stamps only have about 10 home games a year. Empty stadium for 355 days.
