World Series of Barbecue Championship moving to Arrowhead Stadium


 
I am from Kansas City and I think it is a great idea. There is so much space in the stadium parking lots and they will be utilizing the indoor stadium banquet halls for judging and other activities. Parking doesn't sound like it will be an issue. For those unaware, the KC Royals and KC Chiefs stadiums are side by side and share massive parking lots. I heard a radio interview with the president of the American Royal yesterday and he mentioned that last year they had to turn away 40+ BBQ teams that they did not have space to accommodate. I understand people like the traditions and memories of the west bottoms, but having more than enough space to grow this event sounds like a win win to me.
 
Time will tell, but I sure liked our spot at the old site. Can and will be some very long walks to turn in, plus the American Royal complex had atmosphere at least. Now we will just be in a big parking lot.
