Has anyone seen any mention of BrickFest in the news? In past years, there have been stories in the Washington Post and even on national TV.

What about the other amusement parks in the kansas city area? both past and present? Like Jeepers, Fairyland, and Worlds Of Fun.? Why does anyone think having Legoland on the door would make it work?

My whole take on this is that it is NOT Lego driven, but developer driven. If it goes thru, then the taxpayers of Kansas will be paying for this. But if it fails in the end, it could affect the reputation of Lego... the product. I am leary about (...)
