1. Dome Stadium - but with natural grass. We got to see them roll the grass field outside while we were there and then they were setting up a turf field for the college team to play.
2. Stadium must use a sponsor and team gets 30% of the revenue and the county/city gets 70%. Paul Brown is dead and can be honored inside the stadium in many ways just as the Raiders honored Al Davis.
3. Team funds 49% and city county funds 51% (they own it and not Bengals).
4. Events can be held year round, revenue split the same as abobe 30% team and 70% for teh city/county.
Cincinnati could finally get a Super Bowl, basketball final 4, concerts year round and many more events to bring people downtown to help businesses and help pay for a state of the art stadium.
I say go for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good point. You can erect a bronze statue of the man outside the stadium and I'd argue that is more meaningful than having the stadium named after him.
