Chiefs announce news conference on planned Arrowhead renovations
https://fox4kc.com/sports/chiefs/chi...mo-link-block1
Maybe worth checking out Wednesday morning. If your not local I'd assume Chiefs.com will have it on the website. This will have major implications for the April vote on extending the sales tax that will help fund Renovations at One Arrowhead Drive and even more to get Shyster Sherman his downtown ballpark. |

I no longer want the Royals to move. I just assumed if they were to stay they would develop the area.

It is a wasteland but at least it's near downtown and centrally located. If you revitalize that area it at least means something for the city. Also when Chiefs aren't playing people can easily get down there via Uber/Lyft and you could expand the streetcar to that area.

I think that's exactly what will happen. It's why the Chiefs threw themselves in the ring and leaked whatever they leaked to Sam McDowell to write that article a couple months ago when it looked like Frank White was going to torpedo the whole thing. If this doesn't pass you have to imagine Kansas will try and draw the teams away.

VIP access road to be built to the new parking deck next to the stadium. How rich do you have to be to use that?

Not gonna lie…this is super ****ing lame. The last round of renovations (also promised as a facelift that would last a generation) felt like a significant improvement. That was only 2010.
This feels like spending almost a billion dollars on parking and some stupid ass seats no fans who care about the actual game would ever want. You can’t see shit from field level. I very much feel like the chiefs shook hands with the Royals on this as a good faith thing to make it look like they were being good neighbors, but that the chiefs preference would be a standalone deal for a new stadium. They phoned this the **** in. |

Personally I would rather the Chiefs had come with a much larger proposal for an entirely new stadium than a proposal to spend this amount of money on stuff that seems pretty unimpressive.
