When it’s whether you “like” a city while their revenue has gone up exponentially and discussing its finances, yes

So a city that gets poor trash to finance a billionaires house is great just because a city can show it on a P&L?

lol @ Kansas, they will get fricked for decades, till they build the Chiefs another stadium


Also, wait till they get all of the dirty shite with Kroenke and LA stadium out and into the open. His sweet heart of a deal will cost LA for many decades.

Love sports but i hope i live long enough to see them to collapse under the weight of their greed. Our society should be ashamed of itself.

I hope this for so many industries. The greed is truly out of hand.

The Hunt family is worth over $20B but still requires a state handout.

yea this is the thing.

I don’t see a ton of people here crying about it and the ones that are are people that either don’t like sports or hate the chiefs already.

I don’t care about the chiefs one way or another and would generally be against things like this but with the way they’re presenting this, if it stays to what they’re saying, I don’t see a huge problem.

Reading shite like this makes me hate the NFL even more.

I already pay taxes towards a failing franchise without my consent (among many other things).

The irony here is the NFL, along with every other woke organization, hates the people that actually pay the taxes to fund all this shite.

If you live in a city with an NFL stadium, that franchise has raised more revenue (mostly from people that don’t live there and consume the services) than just about anything else

I’ll ask you a third time to explain why this is so bad.

Or you can just keep deflecting because you have no fricking clue

You should watch The Founder about the expansion of McDonalds.

Ray Kroc figured out McDonald’s isn’t in the food business, it’s in the real estate business.

The Chiefs aren't in the football business, they're in the real estate business.

A lot of businesses are actually real estate businesses and most people don't realize it.

The play here is obviously ancillary events and indirect revenue. I think in most cases these subsidies make sense, $1.8 billion isn’t really that much money over 60 years if you get superbowls and Taylor swift concerts and shite like that. One Super Bowl will generate $100 million plus of economic activity.


I think that's the difference here and what makes this make more/some sense. Unlike what the Bears are trying to accomplish, the state would own the stadium and therefore all revenue for other events.

Separately, a team not named the Packers potentially staying in a stadium for 60 years nowadays is laughable. shite, I'd be surprised if they make it to the full 30 years in that thing. They're going to need a new stadium with infrastructure that supports AI enabled serving bots.

McDonald’s is a real estate company more than anything else. It happens more than people know.

How can this be true when they won't own the stadium?
