http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/07/15/report-raiders-would-kick-in-300-million-for-50000-seat-stadium/After commissioning a study on a new stadium, the Raiders believe a 50,000-seat complex on the site of their current home would suit their needs.
However, they do not want to pay the entire bill for the project.
These were among the details disclosed at a Monday meeting regarding the Raiders stadium situation, the Oakland Tribune reported Monday.
According to the Tribune, David Stone, a consultant working with Alameda County and Oakland officials regarding the prospect of a new stadium, said the Raiders study found a 50,000-seat complex would cost about $800 million. Per the Tribune, the Raiders have proposed paying for $300 million of the project, Stone said Monday.
50,000 seats? That's sad.
