Last time this came up, the proposed site was so close to the state line that you could throw something from the stadium and have it land inside the city of Chicago. Then it turned out the data center on the property couldn't be seized by eminent domain, even for an NFL stadium, which was pretty funny.

>>
>>157336056
What exactly is the point of a giant stadium in a dense city is the problem.
There's simply no economic incentive to any of it. 8-10 games a year for a venue that can in the mean time only be filled by about the 20 most popular musicians 3-5 soccer teams on an international tour and potentially a mid-tier college bowl game.
Football Stadiums should be in unusable parts of the metro area, have a special train that goes there, and otherwise it can just sulk, being maintained and not being an albatross that sucks away neighborhood.

I think every NFL team should have their stadium in the next jurisdiction of the city they are based in.

>The Governor of Indiana already confirmed they are staying as the Chicago Bears

>>157336056
But it's whoever is building the stadium that will be an even bigger shithole if done on the Bears' terms. This is going to be the most prickly cactus up the ass of the Indiana taxpayer imaginable. The only benefit is bragging rights which I suppose is more important to woefully superficial Republican voters who for all their stated importance on the economy don't seem to know the first thing about it.
>>
>>157336102
Soldier field has been open over a hundred years. What they should really do is have the city pay for tearing down the monstrosity they built inside of it and bring the capacity back to 100k.
>>157336118
You're a retard if you think Indiana is going to be worse off by getting a new NFL team and gigantic development in their state. Virtually all of the additional taxes are on food and hospitality in their new complex anyway, so it's not like the whole state is stuck with the bill.

You still don't seem to comprehend just where the revenues actually are, how much the teams pocket from the public, or the concept of opportunity cost. Because like I said, you're superficial. The best thing to happen to Glendale, Seattle, or even Oakland was to lose their arena tenants so the venues could be booked with things that don't keep all the money to themselves.

Their NBA/NHL tenants that is. Without those stones around their necks for half the year, the arenas could recoup a lot more revenue from hosting anything else. It's only the Big 4 league teams that get ridiculously one sided deals to hoard revenue.

These are OK. Inglewood is in LA County, at least. Former home of the Lakers, Clippers, and Kings, so there's precedent. A short drive from DTLA, and flanked on all sides by LA proper.
>>the dallas cowboys of arlington
Less sure about this one, but within the metroplex at least.

I'll even grant leeway to NY because where the fuck are you gonna put a football stadium. Maybe Queens, but even that's marginal.
49ers have it by far the worst.

Chicago has always needed 2 NFL teams. They're the 3rd largest market in the US, after NYC and LA, and the MLB already has 2 Chicago teams, so the NFL also needs 1 more. And if the Bears really move to Indiana, Chicago will have 0 teams, which is unacceptable.

According to jewgle, these big stadiums hold around 50 public and 100-150 private events a year. I think if you develop the area around it intelligently, it can be a destination year round. But that really is where the government needs to step in and help invest in the area, and Chicago (and Oakland, etc.) are too incompetent to do that and have other priorities.

>>
>>157339879
Yeah, but a lot of those events are things like Swap Meets, Trade Conventions, Religious Revivals and Monster Truck Rallies. Not big money big ticket events that are bringing in sober and hungry weekenders looking to change that before the game or concert.
A baseball stadium or arena with a Basketball and Hockey Team is gonna still get a good amount of concerts, plus 81-90 days of 20K-40K people coming in for a game, going to restaurants and bars, and plenty of weekends of families coming into the city early, checking out the stores or gimmicks and making a day of it.
It's why downtown baseball stadiums, arenas and even soccer stadiums usually have quick approval from cities while football stadiums are more often relegated to the suburbs

Actual Chicagoan here. There's a part that's lost in all the meetings which is the fact that ironically by moving the stadium to Hammond, it's closer by maybe 30 minutes than if they actually moved to Arlington Heights. One big problem is to get to Arlington Heights you need to go on the main highway I-90/94 that goes right by the largest International Airport in the United States, O'Hare. The traffic would be impossible and it would take well over 2 hours for fans in Chicago to get to the bears stadium had it been built there. Meanwhile this new location in Hammond can be reached in less than 30 minutes thanks to the I-90 Skyway.
t. Lives in South loop and gets stuck in traffic for hour+ just to go to Mitsuwa Marketplace in Arlington Heights

Trust me I've lived here so long I know what I'm talking about. Feel free to ask me whatever you want.

You should check stadium (not team) websites to see what's happening in the future for any given facility. Atlanta has 6 non-sports events between now and the end of the year. MetLife in NYC has 4 concerts between now and the end of the year. SoFi in LA has half a dozen concerts line up although most of them are for multiple nights. Dallas has 7 non-football events lined up through the end of 2026 including a couple of multi-night concerts.

There's not nearly that much going on in big football stadiums each year compared to other sports venues. Football stadiums are going to be closed way more than they're open, for that reason anon is correct that there's little reason to keep them downtown unless the owner or city just wants to.
