	BBTF's Business of Baseball Discussion :: A downtown KC Stadium slapdown
		Seems that Joe Posnanski and Jeffrey Flanagan of the KC Star are pulling a tag-team on the concept of a Downtown Stadium for KC.
		Stadium development is extremely difficult in these times, and the methodology being applied here is going counter to what is being tried in other markets, such as Oakland, NY (both the Yankees and the Mets), the Cards...
		Or would you be for a KC Downtown stadium if it more closely conformed with the same proposal you have in Portland (that has yet to even remotely pass).

	Ballparks of Baseball-Kansas City Municipal Stadium
		The stadium was originally built for the Kansas City Monarchs of the Negro League and the Kansas City Blues (minor league team).
		The stadium now had a double decked grandstand that extended from homeplate to the right field foul pole and down the third base line.
		As part of an effort to make the stadium more hitter friendly, an area of bleachers known as "Pennants Porch" was added in right field prior to the 1964 season, so the ballpark could have the same home run distance as Yankee Stadium.

		The lack of such a stadium was cited by owner Lamar Hunt as a key reason he is selling the Wizards, saying it was not feasible for the team to succeed without one.
		Most MLS teams that don't have their own stadium share one with an NFL team, and that means competing lines on the playing surface.
		A smaller stadium also creates a shortage of tickets, which is not a bad thing.

	Councilman pushes for downtown baseball stadium in KC
		It is generally thought that such a downtown stadium would be in the $300 to $350 million range.
		Since the Bistate II proposal would generate about $180 million for a baseball stadium, that would leave a gap of $120 to $170 million to get a new, state-of-the-art stadium downtown, which would not only generate more revenue for the Royals but create significant additional downtown development.
		However, if the gap financing for the downtown baseball stadium were found and approved, then those who support a downtown baseball stadium would have renewed energy for the Bistate campaign which also would benefit Arrowhead Stadium and the arts.

	The Kingston Communications Stadium
		In an independent poll of fans in the Rugby League Express and Rugby Leaguer to find the fans' favourite away ground, the KC Stadium polled 16.37% of all votes, beating Leeds Rhinos' ground, which claimed 15.49% of votes, and Super League Champions Bradford Bulls' ground, which grabbed an 11.06% slice of the votes.
		Attendance figures for Hull FC games in their first season at the KC Stadium rose by an amazing 67%, with average gates of just under 11,500.
		A significant percentage of this came from away supporters, who feel the KC is more 'away-fan friendly' than the Airlie Birds' former Boulevard home.

	BBTF's Business of Baseball Discussion :: KC Star: Cost of keeping Chiefs, Royals seems to be in voters’ hands
		Less than a year after a Bistate measure to refurbish the stadiums failed, the Chiefs and Royals, as well as the Jackson County Sports Authority, are back at the negotiating table with the owner of the facility, Jackson County, trying to craft a new referendum to put on the ballot next April.
		The Chiefs are proposing a $312 million refurbishment for Arrowhead Stadium and would contribute a minimum of $50 million, or at least 16 percent, toward the project, and cover any cost overruns.
		Meanwhile, KC is dependent on them making all the right moves in terms of their tv contracts AND being more successful on the field than they have been for many years.

	Kauffman Stadium - Kansas City Royals
		Two years later, the Royals replaced the stadium's artificial turf with real grass, and during the decade all of the original orange, yellow and red seats were replaced with blue ones.
		The waterfall and fountains comprise 322-feet and were erected when the stadium was built to reinforce Kansas City’s reputation as “The City of Fountains.” Aesthetically pleasing, the “water spectacular” has defined the Royals’ ballpark for three decades and the view from the upper deck can’t be matched when sitting in the lower bowl.
		Located inside of Kauffman Stadium is the Royals Hall of Fame exhibit, which is housed slightly to the third base side behind home plate.

		The lease agreement includes several provisions relating to the stadium financing, and bond raters will not provide investment grade ratings to the city until the agreement is complete.
		Getting fans to approve funding for stadium improvements in Kansas City has been hard: a bistate tax was defeated at the polls earlier, and many predicted a measure to increase the taxes of Jackson County residents to pay for improvements to Kauffman Stadium and Arrowhead Stadium would be problematic as well.
		The city is seeking the $24 million in credit to guarantee interest payments on stadium construction bonds in case the Washington Nationals fail to meet their rent obligations because of a catastrophe, player strike or other event.

	Batgirl: But There's a Waterfall!
		It seems intrepid Kansas Cityopolitans wanted a new stadium in downtown KC, but ownership said no even though the people of KC were more than happy to pay for the darned thing.
		The author's thesis is that Kauffman Stadium is simply too nice; that if they wanted a new ballpark, the good people of KC should have built a real shithole, like the Dome.
		Of course I mean no offense, just trying to figure out why the KC public is willing to pay for a replacement for Kauffman (a great place to watch a ballgame from all accounts I have heard) while the MN public resists paying for any of it.

		The good news is that the amount of trail available to bikes in the KC Metro has dramatically increased in the last few years.
