Hamilton County might ignore $2.67M stadium payment to Bengals

[wcu]

The team isn’t holding up its end of the bargain. Municipalities don’t supply public money for these facilities to be nice. They do it for the purpose of economic development. If the team penny pinches and puts an inferior product on the field, fans stop coming. I know I cut out my yearly trip this year. We usually drop a few grand over the course of a long weekend when we go up. Multiply that by a few thousand fans over the course of 8 games, and you’re talking about some real significant cash that the city and county are missing out on.

Of course, the county doesn’t appear to have a legal leg to stand on. Mike will continue to bend everyone over and reap the rewards for his cheapness.
