Just looking at simple math here Alsacs...

Let's say the attendance is 65K for the game, not a stretch I don't think.
Average of say about $100 a ticket is about right...that's 6.5 mil to start...
...add that with $30 a car to park plus concessions which I would have no idea but I have to beleive that $50 PP isn't a stretch either which is another $5 mil.
Figure in media exposure for the naming sponsor for the Stadium, 3.5 hour commercial on TV for the Stadium, sponsors in the stadium on TV and the naming sponsor.

EDIT:  From a business perspective, the fixed costs for the stadium are already there, the only increase would be in use (electric, payroll, grounds, cameras, etc.).  Most of the above would be pure profit minus of course the hard goods, food, etc.

Sounds like not such a bad payday (even if it is break even)for a stadium that would otherwise be empty on a fall Saturday.

I also don't think that the entire $5 mil comes from Metlife either, some I think would come from the TV contract.

I would take that deal in a minute if I owned the stadium.
