The $3.6 billion figure attached to host-city infrastructure is not a vibe. It is invoices that already exist. Broadcast economics, stadium debt, and ticket integrity are the same story told in three ledgers.

State resale caps will collide with smart-contract royalty language. That collision is the product. The satire desk will mock it. The sports desk will price it.
