Interest you or a company make is taxed as regular income. Muni bonds are special because the interest you recieve from them are exempt from federal taxes. And I imagine every state exempts them from state tax because they actually want the bonds to sell.

I assume if the Bengals moved to San Antonio and 3 years later the Jaguars moved to Datyon the NFL in southern Ohio would take a hit for a while. Perhaps not. Get your Bort Bortles Dayton Jaguars jersey and forget about the Bengals today!

They wouldn't sell them for that much if people weren't willing to spend that much.
I know which vendors to go to outside the game for $1.50 dogs, $4 italian sausages, and $4 Natty Bohs. I don't spend money inside.

I can't remember the last time I purchased anything with a pro-sports logo on it or from anywhere pro-sports related. And things like this remind me why.

There's something else here that makes it a target, I assume. Some special tax asset treatment where the Corp deducts the interest, and the holder deducts the income (I assume). Because we both agree that debt interest is a standard Corp tax deduction, as is rent (which, in this case, is a related issue). Nevertheless, local taxpayers shouldn't be subsidizing NFL stadiums. And federal taxpayers absolutely not.
