Missouri governor floats potential for a retractable roof if Chiefs renovate Arrowhead Stadium

As the Kansas City Chiefs weigh whether to play future games in a renovated Arrowhead Stadium or a proposed dome in Kansas, Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe on Tuesday floated a potential mixture of the two concepts aimed at keeping the team in his state.

Kehoe, who has been in regular discussions with Chiefs executives, said there has been no talk of building a traditional domed stadium in Missouri. But that doesn't mean there couldn't be another type of covering over the Chiefs' well-known home.

“There’s some interesting architectural improvements to make to Arrowhead that could be conducive to an all-weather protective environment without being a full dome,” Kehoe told The Associated Press on Tuesday. “I would say, look at some of the structures that are in Europe that may have some sort of fabric device that goes over it.”
