I didn't see the part where Gretz mentioned that the Bears, Saints, and Vikings have all left Wisconsin in the past 10 years, and the state was desperate to keep at least one out-of-state team there.

I've also noticed that one of the buildings the Chiefs use at UWRF is called Hunt Hall.....wonder if naming rights for that building were bought for a not-so-small donation to the university, and now the state is repaying Lamar for his generous contribution? Maybe it's just a coincidence.

Finally, the athletes tax that Gretz is whining about may have paid for some of the upkeep of Arrowhead, but it wouldn't have done anything to bring it up to state-of-the-art status, so it's stupid for Gretz to continually beat that dead horse.

In fact, not getting the athletes tax diverted back to the stadiums was probably the best thing that could happen for the Chiefs cause, because now Gretz can use this as an easy sympathy issue when pitting the organization against the MO politicians. Had they voted to divert the tax money back into the stadiums, the Chiefs would've had a harder time asking for even more money (to renovate Arrowhead) after getting the athletes tax money for yearly upkeep.
