So it's a good investment for taxpayers to subsidize the billionaire's arena to the tune of 300M+ just so we can get an extra 1,000 fans inside? The new arena is going to be 18,000 seater and Flames current average attendance is over 17,000.
Why doesn't the billionaire spend his own money to attract that extra 1000 people?
