Record-Setting $850 Million in Public Subsidies Offered to Help Buffalo Bills Build New Stadium

HeadlineMar 30, 2022

In sports news, a deal has been approved by New York officials to spend a record-breaking $850 million in public subsidies to help the Buffalo Bills build a new football stadium. The deal includes $600 million from the state of New York and $250 million from Erie County. The Buffalo Bills are owned by the family of multibillionaire Terry Pegula, who made his fortune in the fracking industry. New York Governor Kathy Hochul’s husband could benefit from the deal: He is a top executive for the hospitality firm which sells concessions at Bills games.
