Well, and here's the other part of this equation, too, is it's not just that plot of land isn't just for the football field.
They want to use that for other businesses around it.

The footprint of Wrigley Field is that.
But what are the other businesses around it?
You can't always be on the hook for just that money.
But I do believe that they would be able to recoup a lot of it because of, think about how many seats that the new place would hold.
