We’ve reached the public money portion of the Las Vegas Raiders deal
$750 million. That’s what the public will need to cough up to get the Raiders a stadium in Las Vegas. And you’ll pay for it with a new tax on your hotel stay, according to the plans put forth this week. And there will be no negotiating that. You’re already looking at a 0.5 hotel tax increase to pay for the new convention center that’s going in. Don’t bitch when you go to Vegas and your hotel bill seems high. At least you got the Raiders and yet another venue to see concerts and sports in Vegas.
Numbers from :
Ezekiel Elliott was chosen 4th overall by the #Cowboys. On his first contract 'after taxes', he will be 2nd highest pd player in draft.
