Monumental Sports & Entertainment’s vision of an Alexandria, Va. arena and campus is looking more like a pipe dream with each passing day. After the arena was left out of the state budget, it was expected that Va. Governor Glenn Youngkin would try to revive the project through amendments.
There is one amendment that Youngkin and Monumental Sports & Entertainment do not support. At least for now.
According to Laura Vozzela and Teo Armus of The Washington Post, they rejected a proposal to a package deal where arena funding would be tied to a proposed casino in Tysons Corner, an unincorporated area in Northeastern Fairfax County.
