Minnesota's "low" 45/56% share, which will be in the range of $400-550 million, is a higher cost than many of those other recent stadium projects altogether - even when adjusting for inflation. Adjusted for inflation, the total stadium costs of Seattle, Nashville, Phoenix, Cleveland, Denver, Detroit and Houston are in the $400-599m range. Pittsburgh and Baltimore are below $400m. These that I mention are all quality stadiums built in the stadium boom era, no already-outdated "Georgia Domes"...
