Surprise-Surprise - Kemper Arena Draining KC-MO Coffers



I
t should come as no surprise at all that KC-MO officials announced yesterday that the city's old arena- Kemper- put on the BIG hurt of a $1.6-million loss this fiscal year.



If you have a NEW car- are you give much regard to the old one?

This is just one of the things I pointed out several years ago when K.C. voters approved building the Sprint: What are we going to do with Kemper?

Got the answer I was afraid of yesterday- we'll shovel taxpayer dollars into it until we A) get rid of it somehow or B) it falls down in a REALLY BIG windstorm.

No wonder the city can't afford to see the loss of the earnings tax....
