Let's call this a weekend primer . . .
Take a look at this local image floating around the Kansas City Internets.
While it speaks to local sentiment, it doesn't really help the MILLIONS that Kansas City is losing every year in addition to a recent condo double down.

Westport would be wonderful if it weren't for all of the vampires.
ReplyDeletePower and Blight District
ReplyDeleteI don't go to Westport after dark regardless anymore.
ReplyDeleteIf I want to go to Vegas I go to Vegas not the fake downtown Vegas imitation we're offering here.
The TKC boycott gaining grassroots momentum!!
ReplyDeleteThis is pure cut throat competition and hatred between P@L district and westport. Welcome to CK!! City of Love!!
ReplyDeleteWell if Westport didnt have such a hipster infestation, and crime after dark it would be more attractive.
ReplyDeletei think its a pretty clever marketing ploy :) competition is good for everyone especially the consumer
ReplyDeleteDont you worry about crime in Westport. KC's crime fighter is on the scene keeping you safe!
ReplyDeleteThere's some men ass security in Westport who enjoy to give a good beatdown
ReplyDeleteWonder which Westport biz owner had that made and put up...
ReplyDeletehipster infestation and crime after dark being metonyms for you're scared of anyone that didn't graduate from blue valley southwest?
ReplyDelete4:21, scared of hipsters? No, its more of a pest control issue. Crime after dark? I guess we now ignore statistics.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately we now have a hipster problem in KC among numerous others to include mob mentality and violence.
Shoo hipster, SHOO!
ReplyDeleteYou seen one sports bar you seen em all.
ReplyDeleteFuck the P&L...bunch of out-of-town douche-bag bars...getting the benefit of our millions thanks to Kay Barnes and the city powers that know so much more than us --while Westport gets squat.
ReplyDeleteIt is important that we preserve and shop at Westport. Just need to clean the culture up a little.
ReplyDeleteTo cleanup Westport requires getting rid of the hipsters and morons looking to inflict pain on people when stupid. Which is most of the time.
ReplyDeleteDowntown doesn't have any soul. It's a cultural wasteland. At least for the moment.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry the streetcar is going to fix that. And that's an endorsement my friend!
ReplyDeleteAnd it's going to be free to ride too!
ReplyDeleteDont worry folks. The hipsters wont ruin the street car. They will ride it a few times then refuse its existence once everyone else has gotten a chance to ride it. It wont be "cool" to them forever. Once this phase comes and goes the majority population of the metro area will have a pleasant experience. Unless of course the zoo/plaza problem spills to the street cars.
ReplyDeleteWestport hipsters are really just irrelevant posers. They all share the same brain, and are constantly seeking approval from the high school like group mentality.
As for Westport making a comeback this is looking a lot better now than a few years back. Always a good place to get lunch with work friends or just friends in general.
Put lenses in those black clunky glasses, ya damned skinny-jeans-wearing, scraggly-bearded, Sly James- supporting, toy train-touting, Murray's ice cream-eating, non-real estate tax paying Hipster!!
ReplyDeleteTell Bill George to STFU and pay the city back the money he owes.
ReplyDeleteHipsters = I got nothing,,, dung? good at ibox 3 ? What do they do? Who are they?
ReplyDeleteWestport is garbage
ReplyDeleteI am going to sound lame here, but westport is not a fun place to drive in. I hate driving around down there. There are always drunk people wandering around in front of cars. It is just too many drunk people that like to play in the street. Add the criminal car jacking element and its just crazy. It has been worse for cime in the past, but lately it has been a jay-walking drunk zone.
ReplyDeletecrime I meant crime sorry
ReplyDeleteReally, what do hipsters do? Make pottery? Water paint? Weave hemp?
ReplyDeleteIm curious...
They stick yarn up their coochie and knit scarves out of their monthly you-know. Seriously - google this shit.
ReplyDeletethat's a hipster for ya
Hipsters = Yuppies without money, job or future. Nothing here.
ReplyDeleteWhat I thought. Thanks Bear.
ReplyDeleteNice Bronco!

ReplyDeletea D-11 bulldozer would do wonders to the landscape of both Westport and P&L. Both cesspools of blight in KC. Just a breeding grounds for lazy do nothing hipster ass wipes.
