CorkScrewHill Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 50% of the 1.2 billion dollar endowment goes to Detroit and the other goes to Buffalo. One problem is they have 20 years to spend it and the endowment grew to 1.9 billion from investments. For those upset that the state and county are paying a high price for the stadium .. this should take some of the sting out of it. https://www.yahoo.com/news/riverwalk-park-plants-spend-1-100020994.html 5 1 6 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Otreply Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Sadly not one dime of that money will be used toward the new stadium, on the other hand, the charity’s that those allocated dollars are used to support are doing far more good things for the community than the building of a stadium will ever do, Ralph may not have been particularly good at football franchise ownership sports wise, but he was a good guy and should be remembered as such, 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
