Except the Flames don't want to own the land or building!

They just want to occupy and receive all benefits, while paying nothing (no property taxes, no profit share, or revenue share of any non-hockey events, etc). Oh, and they want a 9 figure check too, just as a Christmas gift!

You know, kinda like an adult child moving back home to live in their parents basement, and use their parents car, while paying no insurance....but we'll put gas in it, and maybe do an oil change once in a while! It's ok if I base my business out of your basement too right? And deliver pizzas with your car as well?

We're just supposed to be ok with it, cause "their presence enhances our lives"!
