Since 1989 and including construction, Phoenix has spent about 80 million on the arena and the Suns have spent 150 million the inverse of the proposed renovation deal.

Good news for anyone who thought Talking Stick Resort Arena was a weird or awkward name for downtown Phoenix’s pro basketball stadium/concert venue: You won’t have to call it that any longer. The scoreboard inside the stadium, which broadcast the final moments of the Suns game during halftime, is also a hit among fans. ![]()
