Strings

From TPM Reader DB ...

What makes Citi's sponsorship of the new stadium even more absurd is that although the Mets paid for a decent amount of the construction, a lot was subsidized as per this article in the Times. So basically the tax payers give money to Citi to get naming rights to a stadium that the tax payers partially built so the Mets can raise ticket prices to a level that your average New Yorker cannot afford. But hey, the Citi execs will still have their luxury boxes!!!
