The feds paid for most of what I listed not the state. While the money spent on the dome was for the superbowl it will pay off for years to come. The airport was rebuilt for the game but it will pay off just like the dome. A lot of the street upgrades were needed anyway and it was done to mostly federal highways and interstates so once again the feds paid for it.

About half said they thought the city of New Orleans was either still under water from Katrina and/or water drained but area still in shambles because it was never rebuilt. Since a huge portion of the cities money comes from tourism Jindal and the mayor of the city have pushed major upgrades knowing that we would be in the worlds eye these 3 weeks with the superbowl falling right in the middle of Mardi Gras season.
So while more money was spent than the game will bring in the city will get it back over time many times over.
