Is 800 million a decent price for a practice facility? Seems a bit high for me.

It sounds like the “practice facility project” included a lot more than just the facility itself.
The NY Jets have a practice facility in New Jersey that was built as part of a major development that includes office buildings, hotels, and a residential subdivision.

In March, WCNC reported that Rock Hill failed to secure $225 million in bonds to fund roads, sidewalks and other public infrastructure on the site, prompting Tepper's company to pause construction.
Don't see why it should cost that much money though. Not sure where it is located but I think the area is pretty well connected so the roads shouldn't cost that much.

Bills new stadium is going to cost over a billion.
Taxpayers will be paying half of that.
If not more.

My vision of a practice facility? All you need is a football field with a fieldhouse nearby with lockers and showers in it. Shouldn't cost more than 10 million dollars.
