Well, things don't always work like that. Sometimes the money gets made by third parties. If the investor who would build the stadium recieved all the money it brings in, it would get built a lot faster than if the revenue goes to hotel owners, bars etc. and thus doesn't get include in the investor's return-on-investment calculation. The government, however, could make things happen through a hotel/bar tax that goes towards funding things that bring in tourists.
