Yes private money etc etc.
As well an interesting concept, where one end is only for Clippers supporters (special season ticket holders).
Tickets in that section (51 rows worth) can't be sold on secondary market, no opponent teams gear or cheering for opponents allowed. No idea how that will be enforced but a cool idea in concept, similar to European soccer terraces.

I've already resigned myself to the idea that the Flames waited the exact right number of years to build and will save the exact right amount of dollars to get the most bare bones arena at the
end of an arena designing era, right before things blow up (already signs they are) into the next wave of state of the art buildings. 100% guarantee that's what happens.
I'd much rather them wait a couple years and see where things go and try to get ahead of everything. We're heading into an exciting time and we're about to get the opposite of exciting after waiting 30+ years.
