Not a comparison, because the starting points are different, but still, $1.1B USD is an outrageous sum of money for a sports stadium. Makes $1.8B difficult to grasp.
I think it's important to note that Cowboys Stadium is probably the best or one of the best stadiums in the world.

Also, those costs were USD, and the costs associated with Calgary next are expressed in CAD. And calgary next incorporates a lot more than just 1 stadium.
