I personally like where the K and Arrowhead is located at, because other than trying to get in and out is a pain at times (this is more of a parking Nazi/stadium layout issue), I like it that it's close to I-70 or I-435. I just wish the Chiefs/Royals/Jackson County would had made some improvements on getting in/out from the stadium more manageable.
But on the other hand, I been through worse. I went to the Fiesta Bowl in Arizona last year, it took me a hour and a 1/2 to get out of the ****ing parking lot. That was poorly managed.

I think Arrowhead is fine, but I think when they revamped the K and Arrowhead, the K should have moved to the downtown area. There's a LOT just south of I-670 where a stadium could have really helped the downtown prosper. Simply said, baseball really helps a downtown bar district with their many many games.
I would have gone to many many more games if they were downtown. Especially the businessman specials.
