Agree, it would be nice for Creighton. Right now, they can get 4,000 people but the stadium is so cavernous that it feels horrible. There just isn't any demand for their tickets. Maybe if they can build a nice stadium similar to Morrison with great downtown views and make it more fan-friendly peopl...

Great to hear! Really will improve that stretch of road when coming into town from the airport. “Welcome to Omaha! Behold our many stadiums” Lacrosse seems to be growing in popularity. Perhaps one of those facilities is now needed? Lacrosse? What about quidditch? The overhead we have of the overall...

sounds like the owner of cake gallery needs some help. there may be some deeper systemic issues going on here.

I've been told there are still a few things to work out with city of omaha until it's officially official, but I'm assuming that's infrastructure costs, etc. But, there is no expectation that it won't happen at this point. Just some jockeying between the city and team on some details. It is definite...

Season ticket holders were allowed to start buying their tickets for the US Open Cup match against SKC at the match on Saturday. They had a table set up in the concourse as the ticketing system was being difficult online. They have three tiers available for seating with chairback, bench, and GA/berm...

Also, I'm not even sure SKC would agree to play at Werner. It's honestly a safety hazard at times. The fresh sod the other night was starting to peel all around the pitchers mound. That barely flies in USL League One, and certainly doesn't fly anymore in MLS. The only spot that still utilizes a base...

I hope they can find a bigger/better venue than Werner for that game, which I believe would be the first MLS match ever in NE. Nope. will actually be smaller, but that's fine. I'd assume the tickets will be almost exclusively for Union Omaha season ticket holders with a few going to SKC and maybe a...

Westroads, Crossroads, Southroads, Oak View. There was a time when Omaha had 4 shopping malls. Was The Center still an active mall during that time period? Heck, isn't it still crawling along now? It's mostly office space now. I'd consider it an active mall until the time Younker's left - maybe the...

odd. felt like that was about all that strip mall had going for it. I think on the West side it was more office like.

I have only been to Stella's 1-2 times, but I didn't care for it b/c it was overpriced and came out on a napkin. The bun and burger were both stuck to it. Ok. pick any other local bar. Dinkers, Hyde's Slydes. You can get a better burger and support a non-chain restaurant for about the same price.

omaha79

No way I'd frequent this place. So many better options at similar price points at bars and other restaurants. I'd rather go to Stellas anyway.

And, that could be taken as anecdotal, but the market spoke yesterday and the stadium and associated cost, is proving wildly unpopular. Most just want them to renovate the K.

Does something like this give new life to a North KC stadium? Or are the Royals just not gonna move? They have flat out said they will not be playing in Kauffman after 2030.

Agreed, this seems like a big win for the plaza. Cake Shop gets a shiny new store (it's currently pretty dirty and rundown, which the owner lady explains) and Ace Hardware, assumedly, get's a bigger spot with better parking. Cake lady should be hyping up the move. "We're going to have the newe...
