giving part of the lease to the publicly financed stadium to a beer distributor.
St Louis was #1 on Tagliabue's list for an expansion until Tagliabue discovered the funny business with the lease and gave the expansion franchises to Carolina and Jacksonville.
I don't care one way or the other about the Chiefs or the NFL in general but that's the truth of what happened. What's interesting is that never got investigated by the city or state who pumped tons of money into building that stadium.
