Wednesday evening, the news was finishing up right before I had Farmer H's supper ready. I walked past his recliner, seeing a story about the Kansas City Chiefs football team's stadium going back to its original name of Arrowhead Stadium.
"Oh. I thought they were moving to Kansas."
"They ARE. They're building a new stadium there."
"Well, there goes a bunch of revenue, lost for Missouri!"
"No. It's 3 billion dollars, and Kansas is paying."
"What's that got to do with anything?"
"You said, 'There go a bunch of revenue bonds.'"
"No. I said IT'S REVENUE LOST FROM MISSOURI! From all the ticket and concession and souvenir money that people would spend, and the hotels and restaurants."
"Oh. I thought you were talking about the bonds to pay for the stadium."
"You are a lot of work!"
I think Farmer H needs a 3 billion dollar set of hearing aids.
