Frackie Robinson posted:How much money do teams make from people actually coming to games compared to what they make from TV (which is split equally right?)? Or is it more about merch and brand value? IIRC most of the the money made in the stadium goes to the team itself. There was some general fund for 40% of ticket sales and the like, but sponsorship and advertising isn't shared.

I'm not sure how the Vegas tourist taxes are divided up but in Orlando the room taxes and other tourist taxes can ONLY be spent on improving certain things in a given section of the city. Which is one of the reasons why the Orange County Convention Center was able to keep up with Vegas as the largest / second largest convention center in the nation. So these taxes in Orlando don't go to fund roads or schools or welfare or some other program. They're dipping into future convention center expansion. That said if the room taxes ever fall below that $50M or whatever then the city is on the hook. So that may be one of the reasons why Vegas is "different" then say Oakland or San Diego and a Vegas stadium may make financial sense.

Do we know how the bed taxes or other taxes in LV are allocated? Orlando - another large tourist destination- can ONLY spend its bed taxes on certain things, like a convention center, and required a near act of God to get that money spent on the Citrus Bowl and the Orlando Arena.

Zurreco posted:Your hunch is off. NHL is really only open to the last team in Seattle, Portland, Toronto, or Quebec City. I know the GTA is like Canada's New York but does the NHL think there is enough support for a second team? Are they hoping to bleed off the Toronto Habs support? Where are you going to stick them? Mississauga? TLDR - Toronto supporting two teams seems kind of dumb.
