Could the NFL Draft generate more than 100 million dollars for the City of Kansas City?

The Kansas City Chiefs have been dominating the NFL over the past several years, and now they are about to hold the NFL Draft at the end of the month.
According to Forbes, The event, which lasts from April 27 to 29, is expected to have an economic impact on the city of more than $100 million, according to Visit KC’s calculations.
That sum would come from hotels, restaurants, merchandise, transportation and food and beverage sales. Taxes on the latter will further benefit the city.
“It’s great for Kansas City,” Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said.
The NFL predicted around 300,000 will attend the free event, which is in line with numbers for last year’s draft. Depending on weather conditions, attendance possibly could approach the record of 600,000 at Nashville, Tenn. in 2019.
The previous record was 2018 when Dallas brought in $74 million, followed by $56.1 million in direct spending in Philadelphia in 2017 and $43.9 million for Chicago in 2016. This is huge for the city as well as the fans that support their Chiefs.
