I think Ross should put up the majority of the money and there should be a ticket surcharge of $10 a ticket to pay for the rest of the stadium renovations. That way, those of us who actually attend games at the stadium will be the individuals paying for these improvements. I also am a Miami Hurricane season ticket holder and I wouldn't object to paying an additional $10 a ticket to help with these renovations. Every other event at the stadium should also include this $10 a ticket surcharge.

This way the average tax payers who doesn't go to any events at the stadium wouldn't be forced to pay for something they never use. I have no problem with paying more per ticket since I attend games. I just don't think the millions of people in Miami who never go to events at the stadium should be forced to pay for the stadium.

In fact there was a poll in the Miami Herald this morning in regards to using tax dollars on the stadium. Sixty nine percent of voters are opposed to using public funds to add a roof to the stadium. Only sixteen percent approve using public funds and fifteen percent of the voters were undecided. I don't care how much money Ross is funneling to locale politicians in an attempt to get public funding for his stadium. It just isn't going to happen. These politicians care far more about remaining in office then they do about the money Ross is throwing around, in an attempt to get their votes to use public funds, for something the public is so strongly opposed to.

It makes so much sense for the Canes and Dolphins execs to create a concept for a stadium, but, if they cant grasp it, I would take your idea.
