The City’s Sprint Center Partner Is Cheating On Us

Kansas City’s NBA and NHL prospects took friendly fire today – from the city’s alleged arena partner. Sprint Center manager AEG announced today it was partnering with Harrah’s Entertainment to build a 20,000-seat arena just off the Las Vegas Strip.

AEG president and CEO Tim Leiweke recycled the promises he made to Kansas Citians of a pro basketball or hockey franchise today in a statement released on AEG’s Web site. Of course, Leiweke tailored them for a Sin City audience.
