It opens the door, and history has shown that teams move in these situations.

I know people around here (not you particularly) love to predict doom and gloom, but the Royals and Chiefs aren't moving to another city tomorrow if it doesn't pass.... they can submit another proposal or work with another county.

It's seven ****ing years away.

They would need to proceed in 12-18 months to reach a deadline of a new stadium in 6-7 years. They would have another vote in another county/state, new plans, etc.

Not looking good. 58% no with 14% of the vote in per fox4.

Goodbye Royals.

Welcome to Johnson County, Chiefs.

What does it mean?
Mark Donovan made it clear that the team will seriously look at relocating if the ballot doesn't pass.
Obviously the Hunt family can't afford to build a new stadium on their own so they need help from the taxpayers. Arrowhead needs major interior renovations, badly. It's too outdated for a modern NFL franchise. If the taxpayers say NO, the team has no other choice.

Well they are approaching parity in terms of bodily harm and property crimes.

Fiscally responsible Americans that know Shermy isn’t gonna build a winner and doesn’t deserve their 3/8th of a cent

KC is practically St Joe if they don’t build Big John’s Dream

You think the city residents are better off without the teams. Are you insane. Those teams are everything in this city. You wanna be Little Rock AR?

Isn't KC currents stadium privately funded

The more one looks into the topic, it becomes clear that it's a pretty sturdy limb. These types of financials are generally always public, so there's a great deal of real world data to back it up. The economic boost claims are hot air. But as the study mentions, regardless of the obviously negative numbers it still keeps happening. There's certainly the worry that if KC doesn't bend over and take a few pokes in the ass, there's plenty of other cities who gladly would regardless of what the economics say.

Boston, NY, Chicago, Miami, Bay Area / Northern California, Los Angeles.


Maybe you lump in the Texas Triad as one but pretty much everywhere else in the US is "flyover country."
