Maryland Stadium Authority agrees to give Orioles all profits from Paul McCartney concert

The Baltimore Orioles don’t want to share profits from the upcoming Paul McCartney concert at Oriole Park at Camden Yards with the state of Maryland, saying the profit-sharing agreement is a “significant disincentive” to attracting future events to the stadium. The Maryland Stadium Authority on Tuesday said it has decided to “acquiesce” to the Orioles’ request by having the state opt out of “financial participation” for the June 12 concert. The authority’s board voted unanimously on the deal with the team.
