Can somebody explain Lot J?

#19
(This post was last modified: 02-10-2020, 09:31 AM by The Real Marty.)

Okay, here's the explanation for Lot J.   

Lot J is a project that should stand on its own, but the pitch to Jags fans is that having NFL football right next to Lot J will juice up the businesses in Lot J when there is a game going on, and that the additional revenue Lot J receives on a football weekend will be as much as the additional revenue the team gets from a home game in London, thus inducing Khan to bring all the home games back to Jacksonville.  Because Khan will be probably the biggest investor in the Lot J project.

On the other hand, Gene Frenette told me in an email that the additional revenue Khan gets from a London game is an extra 8 to 10 million dollars.  In my opinion, that is quite a hurdle to climb for Lot J to beat that.  

[I'm not name-dropping Gene Frenette.  I don't know him.  I emailed him my opinion about the home games moving to London and he was nice enough to email me back.]

I think Khan is asking for about $230 million from the city.  Someone, hopefully someone on the city council, needs to do that math and see if this all makes sense financially not only for Khan but also for the taxpayers.  It can't all be dollars and cents, though.  Some things in life don't make sense financially, but you just want them.  Like an NFL football team.
