The brain trust over at Visit KC have a new slogan that they recently unveiled to high praise from a bunch of people on their payroll and local newsies who all think alike.
Accordingly . . .
TKC EXCLUSIVE QUESTION FOR OUR BLOG COMMUNITY: WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE #HOWWEDOKC SLOGAN?!?!
Initial reaction . . . The wording is a bit homespun and seems rather "country" which is an odd choice for the "international city" aspirations of this crowd.
More to the point . . .
- The continued effort to FAKE 24 million tourists makes arguing with VisitKC in any realistic manner somewhat pointless and not as much fun as outright mocking.
- "How We Do KC" . . . After a historic 2016 murder count is kind of insulting just on general principal.
- Sadly, tourism priorities, the new hotel and other downtown adventures feed into this continued misplaced view of KCMO as a tourist destination - One of the most fanciful notions from the Chamber & Civic Council casually accepted as fact.

You decide . . .
YES it will work.
ReplyDeleteIf taxpayers are dumb enough to keep falling for it.
they copy from "that what speed do"?
ReplyDeleteAbout all this will do is attract people from the Midwestern boonies of surrounding states to come live in the BIG CITY!
ReplyDeleteBig City
ReplyDeleteLMAO
Oh everybody thinks alike but we'll show 'em, little guy! With Stupor Dave and chuck leading the way, our merry little band marches at a 60 degree angle from the rest of bad 'ol Kansas City who are only interested in making their city a better place to live.
ReplyDeleteSo go march into your ditch.
The Mayor likes a smooth shine on his shoes. Get back to work!!
DeleteSo I'm going to book a convention in a city where clients can't even go out and enjoy themselves without having to worry about being robbed or murdered?
ReplyDeleteName a big city where that's not the case.
DeleteName a big city that isn't infested with the negro menace, threatening innocent people and raping, robbing and murdering innocent whites.
White people will buy nearly anything, except those things that play into theor racial insecurities. So, the more slogans the better. Take those fools' money.
ReplyDeletewhere is the link to the article?
ReplyDeleteJust like so many companies that deliver an inferior product but instead of improving it they double down on advertising. Sometimes it works in the short term but in the long run consumers figure out the inferior product.
ReplyDeleteHow much did they waste on this PR stunt?
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THIS POST!!
ReplyDeleteLikely because it's so true.
As for the slogan, I see that they've run short on the D's and O's, as KCMO's financial mismanagement leaves them with little choice other than:
THAT'S HOW WE DOO DOO KC!

ReplyDeletePlease arrange the deck chairs and prepare for the coming iceberg. These idiots are preparing to spend another $800 mil on more foolishness and new plush offices. Because that's how out of control doo doo birds roll.
ReplyDeleteDon't you love how Sly baits fire and police with more money and goodies. Check out the state of affairs in Dallas. Following the same false path of promises leading to bankruptcy.
Of course Sly's and the KC Chamber of Commerce's slogan is
ReplyDelete#HowWeScrewKC
How we screw KC!
ReplyDeleteHA!
That is sweet. That's what's really going on.
What a waste that KC is still wasting money on trying to become a "tourist" destination when we have such high crime and horrible streets.
ReplyDeleteFIX OUR CITY SLY JAMES!
Don't waste time with this garbage.
I don't know it looks frosty to me. All those white pr bitches show me their cleavage when I sign off on their contracts.
ReplyDeleteSo we're good.
How's next?
Don't worry plenty more taxpayer subsidized market rate apartments are coming!
ReplyDeleteIt's the schools! Local Educushamamtion! It's all frosty here in CKMO and being done for... as Jim said today...
ReplyDeleteYoung adults are floundering in high school, or “graduating” as functional illiterates despite the vaunted widespread application of computer “technology.” They can do Instagram on a cell phone, but they can’t read an application for a driver’s license. And the mania for “diversity and multiculture” has left kids without the armature of an American common culture to successfully mold a life onto.
Weez buildin' diz city for da future like da Mayor zaid!
If the tourism infrastructure in the KC region received more support from Jackson County, we would all benefit. Frank White has his head up his ass.
ReplyDeleteThe problem is not Frank. Caleb is the problem. We have to do everything we can to keep Caleb out of any discussions, which makes it difficult to work with the County Executive. That said, the JaxCo's lack of participation impedes the effectiveness of the effort.
ReplyDeleteWe need Michele Newman's help and we need that kid to stay as far away from tourism promotion as possible. He always wants something. Usually free tickets and the like.
ReplyDeleteWe Do Do and then we doo doo and then we go to westport and get done.
ReplyDeleteMichele Newman would be an excellent addition to the team. She get's it!
ReplyDeleteShe related to alfred E?
ReplyDeleteAs for the slogan. Typical KC shite.
I thought when you said you were "doing" someone it meant you were screwing them, literally.
ReplyDeleteThe grammar of this slogan wrong.
Hey guys! Murders are worse than they've been in a decade, our infrastructure is a crumbling mess, and we've uselessly invested time and resources into showpony eco-devo many times without a real strategy.
ReplyDeleteHow about a new slogan!! It's easier than that governing crap. And more fun!
Michelle Newman is too busy putting pressure on KCATA to run special bus service to Westport for Bill "Stale Beer" Nigro. She made threats about Jackson county funding. The FBI should look into this deal when as they make their case about putting Frank White's son on the payroll for six figures. Billy wants that bus service back Tony. Remember how well that worked out the last time?
ReplyDeletePBI is not doing anything.
ReplyDeleteShut down HUD...
ReplyDeleteDramatically pare back welfare...
Encourage birth control and abortion in orc nesting areas...
Depo Provera shots if on public assistance...
Triple the penalty if a crime is committed against someone of another race (will lock orcs away for a long time)...
Other realistic ideas...?
Listening Mr. President....?
Weez gunna see a massive revitalization thanks to hipster loving Millennialz that enjoy good restaurantz and access to nightlife!
ReplyDeleteLOL right sure we will
ReplyDeleteglad to know the tourist spell better than you do.
ReplyDeleteWhat a rip off.
ReplyDeleteVote No!
@1:38 makes a good point. THIS is how they're screwing Kansas City.
ReplyDeleteHow we do KC is with massive and growing debt, horrible municipal services, violent youths on every street corner and highly paid hacks putting out press releases that say we get 24 million tourists a year, just like Paris (the one in France). Sheeeyit, muthafucka.
ReplyDeleteSounds like nigger English, fitting I guess they make all the news.
