Do we get $$$ for having the Superbowl at Miami?

[WOPMasterG]

Now to me this is just sad to even post. However it is one of the only ways I feel I can convince my friend that Having the Superbowl at your home stadium/town can only help your team because of the money it brings in...Even if we aren't playing in it.

Seriously, people want to come to the Superbowl, they have to stay at a hotel, use the restaurants, use our staff that works the stadium ect ect.

Hell... Thinking about how can we NOT make any money out of this? yes my friends an idiot sometimes I know this...

Of course we get money. I'm not exactly sure how much but like you said, they use our stadium and our staff so Ross isn't going to pay his staff out of his pocket and not get a cut. A cut is coming in. The NFL makes their money on the fact that it's televised. Millions of dollars for 30 second slots, etc.

What's important to me is that money is coming into the city and the South Florida region in general. Like you said, hotels, restaurants, flights, rental cars, nightlife, etc. All of that is great for the city of Miami and South Florida in general. That stadium is right on the Broward - Dade County line so a lot of people wll be staying in Ft. Lauderdale and surrounding Broward areas. Some will stay as far North as Palm Beach County.

Oh yeah of course! Heck i'm thinking at the moment if everything works out with the GF (who is a Steelers fan...Ugh!) That I might have to fly down to Miami and watch the game next year between the two teams...

That would be an interesting fact to find out... Just how much money does Miami get for the stadium's use... God only knows how much more for all the other domestic things mentioned.

in the article about upgrading the stadium they said the last one we had brought 400 million to the city

The Super Bowl might be the most valuable event a community can hope to land -- even above political conventions. Just about everyone attending the game is coming in from somewhere else, which means that every hotel in the three-county area is going to have every room occupied for a week surrounding that game -- and probably collecting a nightly rate several times what they are typically able to charge. These visitors rent cars, eat at restaurants, drink at clubs, buy clothing and game memorabilia from local merchants, etc. It's a big ****ing deal.

I live in the Tampa area they claim the Superbowl generated between 800-900 million here last year.

one superbowl makes so much money, that the renovations would be paid in one year

A place like Miami that has so much to offer, specially during the winter when it is crap out everywhere else, will make a ton of money. First of all it's free tourism advertising for the city because of all the media coverage. Then all these big businesses come down to hold events around the superbowl too. They and all the fans bring their money to town. Then people do what they do at big events, splurge on cash everywhere.

I am against things like public funding for arenas/stadiums like the Heat/Panthers and now Marlins places. But if it guarantees we get the super bowl on a rotating schedule then hell yeah. It's an investment that will pay off. That is how tax dollars should be spent. Not garbage stadiums that no one will go to anyway (i.e. marlins)

I'm with you on the marlins stadium, BUT what does get me excited is then they can get the hell out of our stadium. Do you know when that stadium is supposed to start going up?

They already broke ground. I am almost positive next year is their last at whatever we call the stadium now.

The amount of money that flows into the city and the small businesses is well worth the upgrades needed to continue Miami being in the rotation. The northern stadiums with a roof that have hosted it don't make the amount of money that Miami does because they can't offer the outdoor activities in the winter that generate large amounts of revenue.
