TKC NOTE: Here's an interesting observation from our blog community that calls out our local leadership that leaves out taxpayers and all of the people enduring higher local taxes for development schemes that don't exactly work out to benefit the public.
So THAT'S why Mayor Sly and the KC Democrats aren't interested in getting as Hockey (or Hoops) Team in Sprint
I somehow get a monthly e-mail from Sprint Center -- I just clicked the "upcoming events" link for October - and , as you can see-- most of "our" Sprint Center's time is booked for --- "Private " events.
You know -- for "them" -- not "us" -- the dummy taxpayers.
Checked my email again - no invites to the "private" events ..yet.. but - I'm sure they'll be coming any day now.

Again, you did the research and checked out the facts right?
ReplyDeleteLike near everything in KC it was sure nice of the tax payers to spend their money on someone else.
ReplyDeleteNo invite.again?
ReplyDeleteYou are pretty predictable.
for the month of October in Sprint--
ReplyDeleteFOUR -- Count 'em --FOUR concerts!
but.. NINE "private" gigs.
woohoo!
way to riiipppp the the taxpayers a new one . KC!
@10:10 - that is the Sprint Center site
ReplyDeleteSo tell me one more time why we keep maintaining Bartle Hall?
ReplyDeleteKind of assuming all those "private events" mean someone is PAYING TO RENT IT.
ReplyDeleteExample? Okay:
Oct 11-14 is Cerner Health Conference, which brings over 14,000 people (doctors, other nerds) to town and won't fit in the convention center. Not a hockey game, but kind of a good thing.
Sprint center has made a profit and contributed money back into the city's coffers every year f it's existence, you reactionary, knee jerking, fucking retards.
ReplyDeletefuk yeah!! we want to provide corporate event meeting space --
ReplyDeletewhy actually , y'know, offer entertainment to the working taxpayers? fuk 'em
who needs them filling P& L restaurants before a game, and partying afterwards -- for 40 or 50 nights per season==
you reactionary, knee jerking, fucking retard??
I will buy some of that bullshit for a dollar.
ReplyDeleteWe were promised pro sports not a big private event arena. Kay Barnes liked to us all.
