Well, someone has to put up that $185m for construction, and I don’t think that amount will be collected by the Flames on event tickets before the shovels hit the ground when that $185m needs to be used. The Flames payout timeline for that ticket tax to fully be collected may be over 5,10,20years, we don’t know. But, for example a $5 ticket charge on 36 million tickets to get to that $185m is a long way away, at 18000 seats an event.
