Lecompton, KS Sports and More

As always there were comedic videos, halfcourt shots that netted a pair of KU students $10,000 each and the obligatory “Dream On” highlight video when all was said and done.

The trappings of Late Night in the Phog remained as part of the event’s 42nd edition on Friday night, but for the first time they orbited around a real exhibition contest, in which the Kansas men’s basketball team beat regional Division II foe Pittsburg State, 80-62, at Allen Fieldhouse.

Kansas football game at Kansas State puts focus on KU's Dylan Edwards

LAWRENCE — Kansas football’s rivalry game Saturday, on the road against Kansas State , will garner attention for a lot of reasons. For one, K-State has dominated the recent history of this in-state clash and won 17 games in a row. For another, it’s a Big 12 Conference game that means a lot for the teams’ seasons, and there could be many others worth pointing toward. But one that’s getting highlighted a lot this week is the storyline involving KU redshirt junior running back Dylan Edwards. Edwards isn’t just a featured player in the Jayhawks’ offense — he’s someone who spent the past two seasons at Kansas State before transferring to Kansas ahead of the 2026 season. RELATED: Kansas State football vs Kansas predictions for Sunflower Showdown “I don’t want to speak for Dylan; obviously, I think people on both sides of this will look at this as a game — what I hope for is that Dylan just concentrates on what he has to do and focus on playing his best football,” Kansas head coach Lance Leipold said earlier this week, when asked if this game means more to Edwards. “I know in his time here, he has not

Upscale sports bar known for Chiefs watch parties opens new location at Current Landing

The first sports bar has opened at Kansas City’s riverfront development, Current Landing. Revel, created by Shawn Lawson and Danney Elmore, opened the upscale sports bar Saturday. It sits in the outdoor plaza just opposite to the entry to CPKC Stadium, home of the KC Current. “We wanted to create a space that feels elevated and design-forward, but still incredibly comfortable and social,” Elmore said in a release earlier this year. The interior features wood, leather finishes, moody tones, marble countertops and sports murals line the walls. A Patrick Mahomes statue standing over a Buffalo Bills helmet sits at the entryway. Large TVs are everywhere for customers to comfortably watch games no matter where they sit. There are also a couple coin-operated games like basketball and darts. “The addition of Revel at Current Landing strengthens the district’s identity as a destination,” Josh Goldman, managing director at Palmer Square Real Estate, said a release. “It’s a social anchor—bringing together sophisticated hospitality, the energy of sport, and the rhythm of the riverfront into one cohesive experience.” Revel had an invite-only soft opening Thursday, which Elmore said went really well. Just over 300 people showed up. It opened to the public on Saturday.

How big is STAR bond district for Chiefs' stadium? Check out Kansas incentive map

Nearly 10 months after the triumphant announcement in Topeka that the Kansas City Chiefs would leave behind Arrowhead Stadium for a new home in Wyandotte County, the Kansas Department of Commerce on Tuesday evening unveiled the official boundaries of the massive two-county incentive district that will make the new stadium a reality. The sales tax and revenue, or STAR bond district, will pay down at least $1.8 billion in bond debt associated with upfront construction costs by drawing on incremental sales tax growth generated across almost all of Wyandotte County and a broad swath of Johnson County. “The district represents a diverse revenue stream that includes the cities of Kansas City, Bonner Springs, Edwardsville, Shawnee, Lenexa and Olathe,” reads a Commerce Department release . The boundaries, which Lt. Gov. David Toland set in his role as Commerce secretary, appear to be almost identical to the draft version of the map released in December 2025. The map excludes preexisting STAR bond projects, as well as the University of Kansas Medical Center complex and its immediate surroundings. According to the Commerce release, the district was designed to “maximize the economic impact of the project” and to “pay off the bonds as early
