Royals can do better
Certainly the leaders and taxpayers of Kansas City must recognize that there is a better use of the ground that Kaufman Stadium is currently occupying. Unquestionably the Royals are wasting this prime real-estate.

That is correct EL; the team in Ecelsior Springs is the Kansas City (JaCoMo) Royals. And, of course their footballers are the Chiefs. But who spends Sunday afternoons watching the Chiefs? Probably only Jackson countians.

Bad research.
There is no team in Excelsior Springs called the MudHens
The only MudHens team is in Toledo Ohio

How about a community garden, like the grounds at 22nd/Brooklyn, old Municipal Stadiums locale, for innercity folks.
Nah, those cranky eastern Jackson Countians with their own fields would want a square foot.
Oh, just realized. Lt. Col. Levine,ret. doesn't pay Jackson Count tax , at least for primary residence.
When the team was 18-11 there were thousands of Gene Levines out in support. The usual Royal fade has lead to the typical fan abandonment.
Never mind. Go Royals. We'll say welcome back when all the fans return like it was 1985

Yep, it should be used for global Twiiter conferences for the Big O Daddy and his tingly speeches on subjects he knows nothing about.
