Hands On The Heartland
Checking The Pulse Of The Kansas City Real Estate Market
My wife and I spent Saturday night at the Kansas City Chiefs game before heading downtown to the Power & Light District. Let’s just say the nightlife was much better than the Chiefs game. After watching the Chiefs go the entire game without an offensive touchdown, I almost wanted to call it a night. But I’m glad I didn’t because we ended up having a great time afterwards at PBR Big Sky. The last time we went down to the Power & Light District we ate at Ted’s Montana Grill and it was excellent. This trip down we’d already eaten so it was simply a decision of where we’d go to enjoy the nightlife. We’re country music lovers so we usually try a new place each time before heading to PBR Big Sky to hang out.
Kansas City Power & Light District
On this trip we didn’t have as much time as usual, so we headed straight into PBR. Now if you haven’t been there, the atmosphere is loud and not the best place to try and carry a conversation. But if you like a semi-rowdy crowd, the live music is great and the mechanical bull is a centerpiece of the bar. I’ve never been a big fan of live music when it’s not a well-known artist, but the live music at PBR is excellent every time we go. This trip was a little different than usual because I actually got on the bull. It had been a long time since I’d done it and decided what’s the worse that could happen? Fortunately I didn’t find out and, although I don’t think I lasted even 10 seconds, at least the fall off went gracefully! There was a guy taking photos and claiming they’d be on the web site but we haven’t seen any uploaded yet. If I do, I’ll load the photo here – unless it makes me look bad, in which case I’ll claim the photos never got uploaded.
If PBR isn’t your thing, there are tons of other entertainment options in the Power & Light District. Here’s a few, with links to their web sites…
