Isn't there still that 1% tax on Kansas City, MO residents or did they get rid of that?

There is a 1% earnings tax as far as I know

Athletes have to give KCMO 1% of the money they made playing a game in Arrowhead, not 1% of their total income. So for Mahomie, he'd have to give 1% of his income for the 10 games in Arrowhead, not for road games.

When (for example) Phyllis Rivers plays at Arrowhead, he has to give KCMO 1% of his paycheck for that one game played in KC.

When Bryce Harper comes to Kauffman this summer for a 3 game set, he's going to have to pay KCMO 1% of his income from the three games the Phillies play here. Cha Ching KCMO!

You're totally right, I know that's how it works...but how many accountants do these athletes need to keep it all straight. It's crazy. It seems like if you're playing for a team, you represent that team and are working for that team when you're playing, no matter where.

I could make a legal case that Chris Owings should pay taxes to the city we play against no matter where the game is because he's doing more good for them.

Does he have to pay a percentage of his income in 10 games played on the road.

When I work out of town I have to claim that on my taxes. Probably not as its for only a few hours.

Depends on what the tax laws are in those cities I think

There's still the 1% E-tax regardless where you live and "entertainers" are subject to a 2% tax on money made in Misery. I believe the state income tax is still lower than in Kansas. In addition, if you work in Mo. and live in Ks., you have to pay income taxes in both. The property taxes would probably be much higher in Mission Hills.
