The presumption is that it is being spent, regardless of entertainment available.   Some people might have only spent for certain types of entertainment (sports) .  Some will spend on just any entertainment, so whatever was available. (Replacement)  Very hard to determine. 
      I think the real spill off would be in the 1st 5 years, when it is new, as to how often it is used vs the dome/War Memorial/etc., and how many people will spend on secondary stuff (parking, drinks, dinner) that but for the stadium events, would have stayed at home. 
     I think that there is a potential group psychological benefit, for the area as a whole.  If we could ever get multiple civic projects, with real business tax reform, airline cost constraints, and be viewed as a business incubation area with great tax policy, great entertainment venues, ease of access,  year round seasonal recreation and 6 hour drive from Toronto, Montreal, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Philly, D.C., NYC and Boston, this place could mount a comeback.
