Summary When local Denverites rallied local support for tax bonds to help land a major league expansion team and pay for the new Coors Field, they didn't realize how sweet a deal they turned over to Rockies' owners. Taxpayers will pay almost the entire $215 million of stadium costs. If that weren't bad enough, now the Denver Broncos' owner Pat Bowlen is pushing for a similiar deal.
