Stadium Upgrade Question? - Page 3

SLAG · 03-21-2006, 01:06 AM

If the Chiefs Get the $$ for the Upgrades Arrowhead needs...

Does that mean I dont have to Piss in a Trough any more?

Will I have dividers so MeatPeeker doesnt Look at my Meat....

If so then If i was a Jackson County Voter I would vote yes

What the hell is wrong with the piss trough? It is very efficient. It is also good for when we are playing the Raiders or the Broncos, someone always put a hat in one of the troughs to piss on.

OK, I have season tickets, so I'm a "Real Fan" according to Carl.

BUT...

I live in Cass County and will not be able to vote on this issue, so I'm not a "Real Fan" according to Phil.

I'm sooooooooo confused!!

It's a bad plan because the skinflint owners aren't ponying up enough of their own $$. They have finally resorted to the ultimate in fear tactics "If you don't vote YES, we'll lose our teams". What a BS ploy. These teams don't have anywhere to go, at least not for 5 years. Don't say LA or San Antonio, because it isn't going to happen.
The item that really pisses me off is that the NFL will float any owner an interest free loan to upgrade or build new. That is available to Lamar, but will he take advantage of a potential windfall in profits(i.e concessions, suite revenue, restaurant, and team merchandise)? No, he rather stick it to the taxpayers and I can't blame him if the TP's are stupid enough to fall for this ill-conceived plan.
Simplex is correct, There is no plan for paying down the debt on this. Any amount that comes in above expected outlay for the refurbishment needs to pay down the debt.

Buck up.

I answered my own question. As far as 3 cents on $8 goes, what about all of the local businesses that buy supplies from companies outside of Jackson County? That is an extra 7 cents on the dollar for everything they buy over $2000.

Use Tax Funds Rolling Roof
Construction, maintenance and operation of The Rolling Roof will be funded by a County Use Tax, as well as a significant contribution from the Chiefs. A Use Tax is imposed on out-of-state vendors who sell things to local businesses and it is equivalent to the local sales tax.

Out-of-state vendors are not required to collect state and local sales taxes when they sell something to businesses located here. Because of this, an equivalent tax which is called a Use Tax is imposed.

Jackson County was the only one that voted FOR Bi-State 2. Everyone else voted against it, yet you choose to single out JoCo. Guess we know what your problem is.

I don't care for indoor football.
I honestly think, other than traffic, I won't be affected whether or not we get a Super Bowl in town.
The roof idea just plain looks dumb. Like a tarp thrown over a grill.
So I will vote for stadium upgrades, but not a rolling roof.

Clark Hunt doesn't even live IN THIS COUNTRY.

I am just curious what country does he live in?

Why you got a teeny weenie or something else to hide?

I sure can think of more significant reasons to care.
