Chiefs announce move from Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri to new $3 billion domed stadium in Kansas

>>>The Kansas City Chiefs are moving to Kansas.

The Chiefs, in conjunction with Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, announced in a statement from owner and chairman Clark Hunt on Monday that the team will move to a domed stadium in Kansas City, Kansas. The announcement came after a meeting of the Kansas Legislative Coordinating Council to discuss the Chiefs’ stadium plans.

The Chiefs’ lease at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, goes through the 2030 season.<<<

I'm not a fan of domed stadiums. Football is meant to be played outdoors in the elements on a real grass field.

There's always a tweet.

Missouri has now lost three NFL teams in my lifetime.

It doesn’t make sense, I don’t want to see another football team move out of Missouri

What I'm not happy about is these willy-nilly new stadiums being proposed to replace any good-enough or perfectly-fine present stadiums, especially when those present stadiums already proved to be the perfect replacement of the venues that those gridiron teams had to share with MLB teams for a couple of decades. I want a Lambeau Field or a Fenway Park, not a series of throwaway stadiums that need to be replaced every 30 or so years. It's not just Arrowhead Stadium that's in real danger. Cleveland Browns Stadium is planned to be replaced with a fixed-dome stadium, too, and maybe Lincoln Financial Field and Empower Field at Mile High (although nothing is confirmed for Lincoln Financial Field yet). Besides, isn't having a retractable roof supposed to increase a stadium's versatility (for example, enabling it to host events that are usually held in indoor arenas)?

Is Taylor Swift OK with this? :lol:

She'll just buy Kansas and Missouri and merge them.
