I get a kick out of people saying downtown is a shithole and that nobody wants to go down there yet downtown rent is much, much higher than anywhere else.

Yeah, I live and work downtown. In my opinion, downtown is so nice and has so many amazing restaurants and lounges. Yeah, there’s a few crazies around the bus stops, but I never feel unsafe. I absolutely love living down here and can’t wait for the new stadium.

Yeah it's a group of businessmen. Sherman is just the face of it. None of them are uber wealthy. They are super rich, but they aren't like Mark Cuban rich. Their entire goal is to make as much money possible from the team. If I were in their shoes I'd do the exact same thing. But I'm not. I'm a fan. So I will bitch and moan at any unrighteousness.

Speaking of parking and downtown stadiums - parking in the KC Current's gravel parking lot is apparently being billed to season ticket holders at $68 per game.

I rode the street car once. It was in winter and it was half full of homeless going from midtown to River market and back to stay out of the cold I’d imagine. Had a younger dude with military ptsd trying to tell a few of us his life story while his buddy was knocked out drunk next to him.
I’m guessing this is what happens a lot when it’s freezing or hot as hell out. Maybe they’ll start charging for it and that will change Mecca would have shed a tear for the dude and gave him 20 bucks I’m sure |

There is no way this doesn't pass. It's no extra money, so all that's happening is instead of paying for the upkeep of a stadium in Raytown you're paying for a brand new ballpark in down town KC and getting all kinds of new businesses along with it. Don't really see the down side, besides I guess some people might have to walk a little further.
