Chiefs prez Mark Donovan, when asked this AM about potential new stadium options, said the team has considered options in state of Kansas. They like Arrowhead and legacy of Lamar Hunt’s stadium, but have been pitched by Kansas developers on a bunch of options. Something to watch.

The taxes would go to whichever state the Chiefs headquarters were in, wouldn't it?
I bet Kansas and Missouri could split sales tax on concessions. Or hell, waive them. It's such a fun idea. Tear down Rockhurst high school (lol j/k how about Ward Parkway Mall) and build it there.

That way you improve the city twice.
Yeah, one phone call would solve this issue. The reason we have governors is to plow through bureaucracy to get cool stuff done. [Reply]

Creative witty mind as always !! Good stuff !:-) [Reply]
I was at the first game ever played there - a preseason game against the St. Louis Cardinals. I was seven and don't remember shit about it except being there. We had great seats in the lower level, though. [Reply]
Probably more for the offseason but you don't hear Clark talk about the stadium everyday. Not anything groundbreaking, most of it's about the importance of Arrowhead to the fans and football in general but he does mention the stadium is 50 years old and they have to think about that.
What is the future of Arrowhead stadium?
