Are tax players still paying for the stadium? I know the fee is still on ticket prices but the stadium was built 20 years ago for $280M (not entirely by tax dollars) and just got $150M naming deal from Acrisure. Throw in the $57M from the old Heinz deal and that's the majority of the public money paid back just in naming rights. I have a hard time believing they havent already paid off those initial costs especially with the fee on ticket prices specifically for that purpose.
