Financing
The city paid $7 million of the $11.7 million cost of construction with the county adding $3 million. Capitol Broadcasting paid the rest and is responsible for cost overruns. A 1 percent tax on hotel rooms, meals and game tickets will pay the public portion of the cost.
The Pelicans play in a $11.7 million ballpark that includes a hot tub for rent in the outfield. Not all the park is new; the seats were taken out of the old Fulton County Stadium in Atlanta. The team is a farm club of the Atlanta Braves.
A patio deck hosts groups for $300 including 50 tickets. Food and beverage are extra. The Bud Light Pavilion costs $17 to $19.50 per fan.
Luxury suites cost $400 per game and the price includes 16 tickets. (Baseball, Facilities, Financial, Professional Sports)
