KK wrong about success of ASG
Remember when we were awarded the ASG and KK said that KC will be a embarrassment? Then last summer a article in SI had a player talking about coming here and some players weren't sure. KK took off with that as ammo saying we shouldn't host the game?

Now he s saying that he expected it

This is Kansas City, sir. I regularly call up my clients after work and take them out to the east side for some choice crack rock. Wouldn't it be nice if I could pregame with them at the trap house and THEN go to the Royals game?

The downtown stadium will improve attendance to the point that driving during game times will be nothing more than sporadic.

Saul, your points are not without merit, but I think Reaper nailed it some time back - KC is a travelers city. Everyone here loves to drive. The Complex is literally no more than 30 minutes away for most everybody in the metro, and nobody thinks twice about taking the trip.

In your opinion, had the Royals built downtown and had been playing there the past, say, seven years, do you feel they would have had a significant bump in attendance numbers? Factor in how they've played in that time period before you answer that....
I don't know that there would be a "significant" bump, but I think there would be a 10% increase. Of course, that's speculation.

Well, there's about a 1/3 of the land necessary.

I'm sure looking forward to crossing the interstate to get to P/L.

About as much as fighting traffic and finding a place to park.

Hell, at the rate it's going, in 10-15 years you can use the land currently occupied by P/L.

This discussion just got significantly funnier the past several posts. This one is the best of them.

There were several proposals made. Barrett Sports group worked with the Downtown Development Council on a 40k seat stadium at 7th and Main.

I believe that the Kauffman foundation also offered to donate the land that has since been used for the performing arts center, but others may know more about that than me.

There were also plans to build it up against Union Station which was one of the locations proposed back before the stadium was originally built.

If Demonpenz and Snugga say we should move it downtown, then they need to get a committee together.

Tear down Kemper Arena. Build a new baseball stadium. Revitalize the West Bottoms. Boom.

Wait. What? Earlier in the thread you were practically guaranteeing an increase in attendance from all the white collar stiffs who walk across the street to catch a few innings. Now it's just speculation? I'm starting to think tk13 was right, you're just tolling us are't you? That, or you are a major moron.

7th and Main. Great location, right next to nothing. That mile-long walk to P/L before/after the game sounds exciting.

Union Station? You're going the wrong way.

You're arguing for "things to do" other than the ballgame. Those locations don't exactly help the situation, IMO.
