And they would change business as usual why else?

Being a loyal fan is one thing. Blindly following a group of proven losers because it's what you're 'supposed' to is another.

Do yourself and the city a favor and make them have a reason to change and become a competitor.

I did too. I'm going to put it on my ChiefsPlanet hat.

Holy shit, looks like you have some of the best seats in the stadium. Must be nice.

Nice seats bro. If you don't want to renew........I want your tickets :D

yeah, he could probably hold an auction thread for the highest bidder.

I would try to keep up, but probably fall behind too quick.

Yeah, I'll renew.
The Chiefs are what I do for fun.

Still doesn't mean I shouldn't get pissed off that King Carl raised prices just about every year.

When I took over the family tix from my dad, they were $16.50 each.
Now they're like $85. That's about a four-fold increase in 15 years.
I don't know about you, but I don't make four times more money now than I did in 1992.

And all you guys who say "Oh, I want the tickets...." You're always conspicuously missing in action in December when its 30 degrees and pissing down freezing rain. Nobody's knocking anybody over for seats on days like that. It's always, "no thanks, I've got a good seat right here in front of my TV." We'll see how a blackout or two affects that attitude.

I put my money up months in advance, and go rain or shine. So I'll save this thread. And maybe someday if I have the flu and its freezing rain, and the Chiefs are 5-8, I'll e-mail y'all and see how many of you want to part with $300 for a day of exciting Chiefs football in December.

Remember, King Carl says if you ain't got season tickets, you're not a "real fan." You can talk the talk or walk the walk. Hey, that's how the "Kansas City Chiefs Football Club, Inc" feels about it.

I'd just like more than two playoff appearances in 10 years for my investment. So I think I have a right to vent.

Have to wonder if your tickets are going up $5 a game, how much are they going to up the price for everyone else...

And vent you shall. Blackout days are for work. You don't need to be a real fan to be there. Carl doesn't have a five year plan anymore, so I guess if he was a "real" manager, we would have won the SB, but attendance would have gone down, he would have lost his job, and we'd be bitching about the current manager.

I don't make 4 times the paycheck I made 15 yrs ago, either. But I still have the same TV. And it works great.

Man, to each his/her own.

I don't want people to give up their tickets, because if they do then we are closer to being blacked out, and I can't afford to go to the games.

Only you can rectify this situation. And it is those people who take it lying down more than anyone that are the reason Carl is still GM.

"Oh, my husband won't stop beating me. But no, of course I'm not going to leave him..."

Any day you don't want to go just PM me and I will be waiting with cash money for that game. I don't give a rats ass what our record is at that point either. 119 row 1 are quality seats. Let me know.

Just think, in those 15 years, they've played in 4 times as many Super Bowls that they did in the previous 20.

4x0=0

:)

did you also notice that they were for 7 0r 8 reg season games. I will be pissed if we lose a home game.

Well said, i wish about 70,000 people or so felt the same way. Although, there would probably be another 70,000 waiting in the wings...




I feel ya man.......Carl has everyone by the balls and he KNOWS IT.

Chiefs are an addiction. I just wish the Hunt family knew that Carl is NOT the reason the faithful keep showing up......They show up in spite of him.

3 season tickets here also. $3,000 a year from our family to King Carl.
