Correction and addition..the St. louis Cardinals football team, and the St Louis Rams football team were lost by Mozzouri.
But is this really a loss if the Chiefs stay in the same metropolitan area?
I guess I’m having trouble with that concept. Many sports teams play their games outside the city limits of the city name they have. And many metropolitan areas in this country encompass parts of more than one state.
I’m not familiar with Kansas City specifically. But I wonder if any Chiefs fans who live in Missouri consider this a big loss. And as far as Missouri is concerned, arguably they come out ahead because they don’t have to spend any tax money or sell any bonds for the public financing portion of the stadium. But since the new stadium will still be in the same metropolitan area, Missouri will still get some economic benefits from it.
