I think an arena will get built but not with 5 years
Honestly I feel bad for you Calgarians. They didn't Give you anything to get excited about at all. Not even a decent Concept of the Arena (that is already funded sort of) They just focused on the field house Because this was all a ploy to gain funding like I said before. And why wouldn't you go to city council first and say "hey this is the vision... these are our plans....Here's our funding model...what are the challenges on your end and what are the options to mitigate them?" Your basically asking the city to spend up to a billion dollars up front with the land clean up,venue funding and surrounding area.
Instead they just pissed everyone off yet again with yet another empty stir of the pot. The only difference is this one had a few sketches and a funding model that isn't gonna happen. Congrats Calgary you've been kinged once again
my messege to the flames...Break ground on a Modest arena that you can afford and stop messing around with this field house nonsense
