@@orion3706 My brother in Orange & Blue. The taxpayers of the state of Illinois are still paying for the last renovation to Soldier Field. Public financing of private venues does not math. It’s been proven again and again that the added business revenues do not offset the BILLIONS paid out for these handouts.
Kronke is not just a football operation only. Plus, he has 2 nfl teams, not one. Also, Arlington Hieghts is not a 12 month destination area, like California or Vegas. So you need to make it that. With housing, hotels, business, museums, and free entertainment year round. The McCaskeys need a second source of income, which could be a mini stadium area like Jerry Jones has created in Frisco Texas. It doesn't take superbowls to be successful. Lord knows the Bears and Cowboys are proof of that. The "Brand" is what needs to be sold. The deal the bears have at Solider Field now to play 10 games in is just fine to showcase the brand on the cheap. With the most unbelievable Vista and location in all of sports. Modify that into a working model. With a Modern Dome addition. Capacity is not what it use to be with the price of tickets. It's the experience that sells on mutiple levels. Not everybody can afford an $1800. dollar ticket. So, build the experience that you can sell to the common man.
And still pay lease to the City since the proposed stadium will still be built on the Chicago park districk land. If the McCaskeys are smart, they should just say the new stadium will double as a sanctuary for the illegal migrants, they will definitely approve it asap.
The problem is every city wants a new arena, ballpark, or stadium, criteria for a sports team let the arrogant owners pay for it, the average taxpayer can't afford tickets to their overpriced events anyway.
I hope it happens, as a Bears fan, and resident of Illinois, I'd like to see Chicago get a new stadium to not only host Bears games, but also revenue generating events for the city and state. But since Chicago doesn't want any private business like that on the Lakefront, I'm pessimistic. I wish Illinois, Chicago, and the Bears cut a deal, where Chicago gets 50% of all revenue generated, Illinois gets 30% and the Bears get 20% of all revenue generated, and during Bears games, the Bears get 30% and the state gets 20%. But again, I'm pessimistic.
I live in the Chicagoland area. It's not getting built. It's ridiculous that we (Illinoians)pay the highest property taxes in the country and that the city it self is in serious trouble both economically with a 1 billion budget shortfall this year alone(2024) and civilly with random crime on the rise. Its a nice luxury item to strive for once order is established, but it is not an affordable one for Chicago at this point in time. If they could raise the money with private bond sales for those who want it, fine, but not with tax dollars.
just build a stadium in Arlington Heights already. Honestly it's time, they should be allowed to move if they can. A modern stadium with quality amenities, that's a win for all of us.

The McCaskeys are not Kroenke. Their net worth is less than $2 billion. A net worth that's only from the team.
The stadium needs to be at least 72,000 and if we get a super bowl, expand to 80k...
Exactly. Average cost of tickets $350
