So far from what I understand he county is kicking in $350 million of the $470 million and the Bengals $120 million.  From the article I think the county is trying to get their cut from the unclaimed funds proposal.  I don't think it has all been approved yet.  Looks like the county is also considering a cigarette tax as part of the budget and will perhaps draw funds from that as well.  

I guess the cigarette tax makes sense because the smokers will never make it long enough to see the Bengals win a Super Bowl anyway.
