Bills reach deal for new stadium, with a record amount of taxpayer money funding it

The Buffalo Bills set a record, and it greatly benefits the team's owners.

The Bills will have the most public money set toward the construction of a new stadium. According to the Buffalo News, the Bills will get a new $1.4 billion stadium.

The stadium itself is the first big part of the story. The second one is that the state of New York and Erie County is contributing $850 million to the construction costs. The most an NFL team has been given in public tax money for a new stadium was the Las Vegas Raiders, who got $750 million in tax money to help build Allegiant Stadium, a big factor in the Raiders moving from Oakland.
