You really do try way to hard.
Since you went straight to your favorite reference Wiki-wiki, allow me to provide the actual public facing portion of the document of record that all parties, public and private, must adhere to:

So yes, I had thought the entire property had been absorbed by Inter Miami (e.g. Team Mas and others), but it was retained by CoFtL. With that said, the main point of my porst was he [Mas] has economic and socialization self-interests by hosting our Canes Spring 22 game at Lockhart (it will always be Lockhart **** it!).
Oh pray tell why one asks!!??
Well, considering he has defacto property ownership-esque responsibilities and authorities via the 50-year lease agreement. Those pesky details and all.
"...Crews at the site of Lockhart Stadium began the demolition of the stadium at an event that started just after 9 a.m.

Demolition Begins at Site of Lockhart Stadium in Fort Lauderdale
The stadium came into the national spotlight when it was the home for both the Fort Lauderdale Strikers in the 1970s and 1980s – as well as a second version from 2011 to 2016 – while serving as the home field for South Florida’s first MLS team, the Miami Fusion.www.nbcmiami.com
“...Under the terms of the 50-year agreement, Inter Miami will fund the Lockhart renovation project, at a cost estimated at $60 million, and will operate and maintain the site while the city retains ownership of the property..."

Love the new Lockhart. Went there for the state title games. Beautiful facility.
I hope they eventually spruce up the area outside of the stadium on Commercial Blvd, because currently there ain't **** desirable out there.

I think April 16th was already announced as the official date, No? Or was that someone in the media guessing as well?Already booked my room guestimating on the date.
You are behaving like such a crybaby.
I provided a factual correction. It was not a derailment, no matter how hard you try to make it such.
You were wrong. As has happened many, many times. But like your man-crush, you can never admit when you are wrong.
The stadium is not owned by the Mas brothers. You were wrong. I realize you will never admit that you are wrong, but keep arguing and rationalizing and justifying. You make some ridiculous points about "economic self-interest" when there will be no sale of concessions, parking, etc., and whatever we pay to rent the facility will go to the City of Fort Lauderdale.
We've played the game at Lockhart before. Has NOTHING to do with the Mas brothers. But keep spinning.
How you woke up. Don't cry makes eyes puffy.

Fare up hard to deal with today huh? Maybe use one of those spinner wheels to relax. DBC has turned it around, look to him for inspiration!
Since you missed it the first timeJust say it, Fonzie. "I was w-w-w-w-w-wrong." You can do it.
You "thought the entire property had been absorbed by Inter Miami" (it wasn't), then you go on to write a treatise on "economic and socialization self-interests". Feel free to tell us about all of the economic benefits the Mas brothers will derive from the City of Fort Lauderdale collecting a few thousand dollars for UM to rent Lockhart for a few hours. So you complicated your "admission of error" by making additional factual errors.
Hilarious. Can't make this stuff up.
Since you missed it the first time
You do realize operations revenue goes to Inter Miami right? You do realize bringing people to the stadium for any reason is, at the very least, some marketing/experience attempt at having them return for future events and spending money. You of course realize that a long-game plan would be to get everyone thinking, "hey a stadium like this could work for our Canes to play in instead of HRS." Of course you have.
Please regale us with all the stories of UM classes you took that taught you these basic concepts.

Clever they way they did. Each section was a stand alone "module" so a construction delay/failure could have been cordoned off and the other pieces put into use (minus the playing field of course). I believe they had three of their teams in a friendly competition with each other (what I heard anyway).For a place they basically built overnight they actually did a real nice job with 2InThePink Stadium.
I'm not a soccer guy but Mas shouid really get Beckham to make an appearance at the Spring Game.
I didn't know that. I remember initially being very skeptical of their overall construction timeline. Amazing how things can work out when capitalism meets urgency meets a level of intelligent planning (I'll leave the debates about government/public-private "assistance" to others)- as we have some stretches of highway down here that have seemingly been under "construction" since Saban was a coach in Miami.....Lou Saban.Clever they way they did.

Is that the soccer stadium?
Just to avoid any confusion: No scarves, no goofball chants and no postgame shirt-swapping for our spring game.Yes it is
same here, and the fire works shows on the 4thYessir
