I saw this...
and I dont think you can really argue with any of this, as of right now the Chiefs are a pathetic franchise, their games are expensive and they dont win games, and until they PROVE they are turning things around, you kind of have to assume that it will continue. Im not worried though, because I think things will turn around and I think we can expect the ranking next year to jump quite a bit.
Ironically the Royals however are 42… Ahead of even the Red Sox.

I was surprised at first...
but when I looked at the numbers, I guess it makes since. ESPN put most of the emphasis on the fan, and since the tickets are cheap, the stadium is really REALLY nice, and they have great promotions, that almost makes up half of the poll. Add to it the fact that most baseball insiders believe the Royals are on the cusp of playoff runs with their strong farm system and they went from a mid level team to a upper third level team.
Of course the changes made at Kaufman should reflect at Arrowhead as well, I doubt the renovations their will be the same, because in baseball the whole park atmosphere is important, where as there is much more focus on the actual field product with football, but I do imagine that the stadium experience number will improve after this year. So if the Chiefs do improve as a team and win say at least 7 games, then it the domino effect of coaching, title track, bang for buck and players should all increase, and if all those increase then obviously the owner is doing his job.
Wow that was longer than I anticipated, but basically they really mean nothing, and can only go up.

The Chiefs aren't all that expensive when you compare prices in the rest of the NFL.
