the Steelers direct payment to the county is only a small portion of what the county makes off of the stadium. Not to mention all of the extra taxes they reap from all of the patrons that come to events. Hotel taxes, drink and food taxes, etc.

Plus, it makes the city much nicer, people that attend functions there will have a better time, etc.

It’s retarded to think that it was a BAD investment. Maybe if the money were invested elsewhere, it would have returned more pure cash, but there is a myriad of other benefits the city and it’s residents enjoy that have no cash value, but should still be acknowledged.
