Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

If it’s truly about 50/50 as the polls suggest, then keeping Oak open could be just enough to get this vote over the line. That’s probably why they did it.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

It really does feel like overall the Chiefs never really gave a shit whether this happens or not, and it’s really just been about the Royals only the whole time.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

Has anyone seen polling on this location? Like I said I had saw unreleased polling that the East Village vote would have failed. Curious what this one looks like? I haven’t seen the polling data myself but have been told they feel very positive they’ll get a winning (yes) vote right now. Just saw t...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

If this thing fails it’s gonna because the Chiefs flopped. That’s who we were counting on to carry this.

Agreed. It’s so stupid I just stopped commenting on this topic now until people get real.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

I was a strong Yes on the April vote and have spent considerable time on the Waldo Neighborhood page as to why, all related to the Royals announcement. Now I’m not sure. The Chiefs (Hunt) have really deflated my expectations for a “re-envisioned Arrowhead”. Clark Hunt has come off like a cheap ass ...

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

We would be 100x better off taking that $800 mil for the Chiefs and just building the streetcar connection from Midtown to Arrowhead.

That would ironically look better than the nothingness in these renderings too.

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

You know the most efficient way to pass this vote would literally just be for the Chiefs to say "we're leaving if this fails"

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

What's ironic with these dipshit voters is the Chiefs project is actually the one that is so much more of a cash grab for themselves. The Royals project atleast adds to the city and will benefit people. The Chiefs are just sucking out money for themselves with more suites and adding literally nothin...

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

This is the first time I've started to actually be concerned this vote might fail.

This entire vote is basically Royals only. I don't even know what you could market for the Chiefs...the new suites? Wow.

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

I cannot believe they are still gonna leave those ugly ass 1960's spiral staircases out on the exterior instead of covering them

How do we even sell this campaign now with the Chiefs as the "lead" over the Royals? They aren't even doing anything.

Re: New Chiefs Stadium

What a massive disappointment. The stadium is still gonna look ugly. I cannot believe Buffalo, Nashville, Jacksonville are building these sleek new stadiums and the back to back champion Chiefs are just building a few fan zones and suites. This is so underwhelming. The Royals are the only real hope.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

This whole thing is just way too much about the Royals when it needs to be about the Chiefs
