Does anyone know the specs on how much public money went to Edmonton's arena? Just curious.
Also, I know the two sides are still pretty far apart but I find it hard to believe that there's not a deal that can be worked out whereby the city takes a cut of arena revenue. There's so much money to be made off of having possibly two premier event centres for a metro area with 1.3 million + people, we just might have to see some more give on the owners side than they want. Considering all the things the city spends money on that give virtually no return you'd think they'd be more receptive.
