The fact that the state did not have to give in does not keep from being blackmail.

Hmmm...
Hennepin County, where the bridge is located, recently passed
a new .15 percent sales tax solely to pay for Pohlad's new stadium.


Actually, in our market system, Pohland made a negotiation.
The deal was put before the voters of Hennepin County to give them
a chance to say "H-LL NO!!!".
Instead they voted for it, the tax and got to demonstrate where their
priorities lay.
