I've said this before and I'll say it again:WoodDraw wrote: ↑Sat Nov 20, 2021 4:22 pmI think you have to read around the edges. This is the chiefs saying they know that the royals want to move downtown and we want our cut of anything they get.GRID wrote: ↑Sat Nov 20, 2021 1:48 pm Why does Arrowhead Stadium need an entertainment complex around it?
And if it had one around it, how would it survive in a market already over saturated with retail "destinations".
I really don't see why the Chiefs would ever leave the Sports Complex and I don't think they ever will.
I think these are are the only things that will happen:
A new downtown baseball stadium and a renovated Arrowhead. (The best scenario).
A new downtown baseball stadium and a new NFL stadium at the TSC. (Would be nice, but likely not doable).
Both stadiums renovated at the TSC and hopefully improvements to the TSC a new hotel, some minor retail. (probably most likely).
They're not going to get an entertainment district there, but what they could get is ground level bars for people that don't tailgate.
I don't know what the chiefs want, but I think this points to what they want. They don't make anything other than parking off tailgaters. What if they could bring them inside during cold weather?
It's becoming more clear.
If the Chiefs want "entertainment" around their stadium, move to the Legends in Kansas where it's already in place, and use the savings to help build the new coveted indoor stadium they want.
This becomes alot easier for Missouri to do if/when STL gets an expansion team here in a few months from the NFL lawsuit.
