Are the Chiefs Leaving Kansas City?

Author Chris Beasley

Missouri residents voted against funding for a new football and baseball stadium in Kansas City. And now the question has to be asked; are the Chiefs leaving Kansas City? Voters voted against the proposed tax by a resounding 58% putting the future of the Chiefs and Royals in question. It is difficult to image a team with the on-field success leaving a city, but the future of the Chiefs in Kansas City is very much in the air right now.

There could be a re-worked proposal that gets voted on in the future. But at 58% it is difficult to see how over 8% of the population change their minds on the matter. The the answer to the question “are the Chiefs leaving Kansas City” can’t be answered right now. But it seems more likely that the Royals stay opposed to the Chiefs.

The Royals have already pledged $1 billion in private funding for a new stadium. The Chiefs on the other hand have pledged just $300 million of a proposed $800 million renovation plan. And a much larger trend is starting to emerge with Chiefs owner Clark Hunt. He is cheap.

In the annual NFLPA Team Report Card the Kansas City Chiefs ranked towards to bottom of the league in Food/Cafeteria, Nutritionist/Dietician, Locker Room, Training Room, Training Staff, Team Travel, and Team Ownership. The Chiefs ranked dead last in the league in their Training Staff and Team Ownership. Clark Hunt is a tremendous bourdon for the Kansas City Chiefs. And they are winning in spite of him, not because of him.

So are the Chiefs leaving Kansas City?

Not right now. But if the current trend of Clark Hunt being cheap in every facet of ownership the is seems likely. Clark Hunt and owners that have inherited their teams can not keep up with the billionaires that are buying into the league. And now it seems like the Chiefs could be on their way out of Kansas City. Missouri has already lost one NFL franchise. Don’t think it can’t happen again. Clark Hunt seems like the kind of guy that would love to have a city or state build a new stadium for him so he can continue his cheap ways.

Chiefs Heiress Gracie Hunt is an Absolute Smoke Show

The Kansas City Chiefs are the gold standard of the NFL. They have appeared in 5 straight AFC Championship games and 3 of the last 5 Super Bowls. Andy Reid is one of the most reliable coaches in the league. Eric Bieniemy continues to get passed up for head coaching jobs, but he continues to put a top-5 offense on the field year in and year out. Then there’s Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Chris Jones, Dee Ford, and the list goes on and one. They are one of the best run organizations in the entire NFL. And looking and who will eventually take over as team owner, they will have the hottest owner in NFL history. Gracie Hunt is the daughter of Chiefs owner Clark Hunt. And get to know her name.

Gracie has her own accomplishments. She won Miss Kansas 2021, and looking at her it makes perfect sense. She’s been blowing up on Instagram recently with over 239,00 followers. This is the sort of social media content that Chiefs Kingdom can be proud of. Unlike the way they feel about the franchise quarterbacks wife and brother. They are an embarrassment to Kansas City and the Chiefs organization. But enough about them, let’s get back to the reason we’ve gathered here today: Gracie hunt. Whether you’re “Go Birds” on Sunday, or “Chiefs Kingdom” we can all hope that Gracie Hunt continues to provide us with the content that we are looking for.
