$75 parking spots and $800 a night hotel rooms are some pretty wild assumptions to make, and that’s ignoring that they’re also expecting to put on as many events as Madison Square Gardens, too.
one more time: **fuck you, ted**
Youngkin’s private equity background is finally good for something – he can see through Ted’s bullshit #s. Of course, Youngkin’s tune will change when Ted slides some cash in Youngkin’s pocket.
Abbot and Costelo
He could easily sign the recreational cannabis bill that sets up shop fronts and use that tax money to build the arena. But he wants taxpayers to foot the bill. Billionaires are assholes.
