I think it speaks to the fact that there's only so much more they can really do with a 50+ year old stadium. The location isn't near enough to other attractions to support an entertainment district like SoFi (and that's kind of what the Royals are trying to do anyway). You can't add much more weight to Arrowhead given the underlying structure, so that leaves limited room to expand anything.

The outdoor stuff seems cool I guess? Not $800m cool, but it'd be nice to have a spot as a visitor to explore other than just wandering the parking lot and talking to random tailgaters.

But yeah, overall this doesn't seem particularly exciting. 95% of the game-day experience seems like it would be the same.

That can be some of the best fun.

Don't care. We win is all that matters anyway.

[wazu]

Just give it to them so we can for another couple of decades.

Chiefs taking flak about only white people in the ads and media.

[Stewie]

Too funny. This is lip service. They aren't doing this. They're building a new stadium at the Legends.

Chiefs out at Legends. Royals up in North KC

Wins all around.

Yuck

There was an implied threat by Clark. If the vote doesn't pass, they have contingency plans in place, which includes not signing a new lease when the current one is up.

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.

all these things come down to the last minute. After all the threats have been made and a vote has failed, then they get serious.

Surprised Clark already went to the threat. The threat is about moving out to the racetrack not moving the team to San Antonio. Still a threat though.

Wow......
