That would be awesome to get the games even closer for a little while.

I know this won't happen, but I just wanna see the Chiefs have to play one game at KU while new Chiefs stadium is being built.

This is going to wreck SKC's pitch that has finally settled in after years of having to be replaced constantly. But Illig seems to want this so big time meh.

Yeah, please no KU football at CMP! Not good for the pitch, plus having the visible lines for football during a soccer match is annoying as hell.

Here are some possible renderings. It will be awesome to have two full sized stadiums in the KC metro.

What exactly are the changes being made to the KU Memorial Stadium?

Is Arrowhead out because of the state line?

Arrowhead is the obvious spot to play at...but yeah I'm guessing it's the state line BS that is holding up from them playing there.

KU Stadium right now is *awful*. Opened in 1921 and it has barely changed since. It has no upper deck, and no seats behind one of the endzones. The bathrooms & facilities look like they're from the 1950's.

It honestly feels like just a large high school stadium.

Not a Kansas fan but I hope that's not the real plan. That's really unappealing. Looks cheap, like a high school stadium.
