Actually, I do know what I'm talking about when it comes to the money part of this deal. I know someone in the accounting office and the ticket office as well. Nevermind the fact that I am in the business and understand how the math works.KU easily makes more that $1million on a home football game, even if it doesn't sell out.Just the basic, beginning math on KU/MU last season. $65 times 51,000 = $3,315,000.Even if KU gets $1.5million times two years at Arrowhead, it won't even come close to what they would get for one game at KU at $55 or 65 a seat, PLUS concessions, PLUS parking, and MINUS expenses.You need to revisit the math.
