Chiefs agree to deal to play in dome in state of Kansas in 2031
The Kansas City Chiefs announced Monday that they will leave Arrowhead Stadium, their longtime home venue in Missouri, for a new, $3 billion domed stadium that will be built across the Kansas-Missouri state line and be ready for the start of the 2031 season.
Agreed. Open-air stadiums are their own special thing, especially in cold-weather climates. It's a tough environment in which opponents must play as the schedule dictates.
Putting everything under glass gives an advantage to visitors in that they don't have to worry about weather being a factor, at all, in the game. I also think it tends to make the crowds a little less rowdy.
How are they giving up home field advantage? I don't love the move or the continuing throw-public-money-at-competing-public-projects hamster wheel, but KC metro is half in KS.
The new stadium won't inflict weather effects on warm weather opponents in late and post season games.
It's not a done deal quite yet, as there is a move to generate revenue to update Arrowhead.
If it does happen, one has to wonder what would be done with Arrowhead, which is still a pretty good facility. You can only plunder a couple of college football games a year when there isn't a stadium rebuild in progress,
Political stuff
Haha. I am definitely part of the problem!

Feels like they are giving up a lot of home-field advantage here.
Wife, who has spent a lot of time with relatives in KC, says the Missouri is very diverse, and the Kansas side is not.

Also newer stadiums tend to price out the old die-hards, but I guess that's unavoidable if you really need a new building.

Stadium mania! GOP living up to its reputation as irresponsible hacks and subsidizers of billionaires.

No worries, 12 hours to go before the game, thanks for the rec. Go Bears!
It's an ESPN game, and your hotel probably has that in the tv package.
