Mayer signed with the Kansas City Comets for the 1985-86 season and became an MISL All-Star for the second time. “Kamikaze” (as he was nicknamed for his reckless all-out style of play) became a fan favorite throughout his time in K.C., spending his final four seasons as a Comet before retiring at the end of the 1988-89 season.
