Nevada Tourism Panel Discusses Nine Potential Sites For Raiders 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Jul 12, 2016 12:09 pm

The Southern Nevada Tourism Infrastructure Committee held a special meeting Monday to discuss nine potential sites for a 65,000-seat stadium that would be the home of the Oakland Raiders.

The estimated price tag has gone up, from an initial $1.4 billion to possibly as much as $2.1 billion. The rise in price would be in part due to land acquisitions, as well as the stadium now being proposed as a retractable dome.

Mark Davis has said that he would prefer a retractable dome as well as a natural grass playing surface.
