Kansas Citians will crowd into Arrowhead Stadium Sunday for the Chiefs’ playoff game with the Pittsburgh Steelers. It’ll be cold, maybe wet, definitely fun.
It’s been quite a time for fans of the area’s professional sports franchises. The Royals’ trips to the World Series in 2014 and 2015 still bring smiles. Sporting Kansas City won the MLS Cup in 2013. Now the Chiefs are back in the playoffs, with a shot at the NFL championship.
Only someone with a heart of stone could bring up worrisome news at a time like this. So call me Mr. Marble: It’s time for the metropolitan area to begin thinking about the future of the Truman Sports Complex, and where the Chiefs and Royals will play their games in the not-so-distant future.
