Re: New Chiefs Stadium

Simple answer, Clark Hunt is a cheap ass. I love how he was talking about a “re-imagined” Arrowhead for future generations to enjoy and be the envy of the NFL. Bullshit. He’s putting in $300M after winning 3 Super Bowls in 5 years. I honestly can’t stand the guy, he’s so pompous and living on his D...

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

I guess I was just hoping for a more comprehensive renovation of Arrowhead to truly modernize it so it looks less like a 1960 stadium with a press box slapped onto the side of it. I mean keep the bowl as is, redo the middle level (the yellow seats just look odd and they are often not full). But most...

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

How many here would rather see the Chiefs build a new stadium in Kansas than renovate Arrowhead? I'm not totally sure I would support it, but I really do think I would entertain the idea now. I'm just not impressed with the Hunts plans for Arrowhead. I think the Royals are the more likely franchise...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

I think Sherman should just give up and take the team to city that wants them. Then he also truly makes some big time money too since that's what everybody thinks is all he wants anyway. seriously wtf is this? Luckily Sherman is a KC guy. Sarcasm. Since everybody seems to think Sherman is only in i...

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

I’m disappointed we aren’t getting a mixed-use component to this, but I’m never going to say “never” to that one. The Hunts have other things in mind from what I’ve been told on that front. Any idea what? Relocation of HQ/practice facility and surrounding development? New training and office facili...

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

The Chiefs are only putting 300 million into this? WTF? And the bridge in the parking lots is the highlight? Meanwhile the Royals are saying they will invest over a billion? Pretty sure the Hunt family has a lot more money than Sherman and pretty sure the Chiefs make a lot more money than the Royals...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

The anti sales tax vote people, and those who are so hellbent on anything even remotely related to being against this proposal, are some of the most obnoxious and vile people on social media these days. Seriously, WTF is the problem with these people? And I don't mean people like Dave who have genu...

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

I was basing that off my personal opinion that this renovation won't last 25 years. No way in hell. What renovation of any pro stadium has lasted longer than 25 years? Long before the tax expires and probably before their lease is up, they will be asking for another major renovation, but likely a ne...

A forty year tax for another 20 year renovation?

Nothing makes sense to me anymore.

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

Okay, maybe it's time to take a break from all this. The new arrowhead is underwhelming at best. I thought they would do something decent with the area where Kauffman is. The downtown Royals stadium is hated by so many and yet I don't even see it living up to its renderings. I mean where is the mon...

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

I'm most excited about the parking lot upgrades. The parking situation has been hell on earth in recent years. Took me almost 2 hours to leave the stadium and get on the highway after the game I went to this season. I agree on keeping the bowl of Arrowhead. I just hope the renovations are extensive...

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

I was not expecting much, but this is extremely disappointing. I mean even after this opens, I would still rank Arrowhead in the high teens compared to other stadiums. The only reason it's ranked high is atmosphere. The stadium itself is really dated. I think this renovation will be nice, but it's n...

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

Welp, kind of what I thought. Pretty minor upgrades and pretty much nothing added in place of Kauffman. Man I don't think you can call this a minor upgrade. It's just not "adding" much so it doesn't look a lot different. Hard to tell from video I guess they are rebuilding most of the stad...

Re: OFFICIAL - Embassy Suites (former Federal Reserve)

Good news I guess, but Downtown really needs more hotels, especially on that side of downtown. Seemed like a perfect fit for an Embassy Suites. Covid was probably nail in the coffin though as CBD hotels are still struggling. The story says KC hotel market not quite back to pre-covid levels but gett...
