If there is a chance of 2 inches of friggin' ice, is there a chance they postpone till Monday do you think? I mean if the city is paralyzed by the weather, and power outtages are everywhere, seems kinda stupid to try to have a football game...it would be different with snow, but this could potentially be a whole other animal...

Missouri

Gov. Eric Greitens activated the state Emergency Operations Center Thursday as Missourians prepared for major impacts from Jupiter, particularly ice.

"Everyone should be aware that this potential weather event could disrupt travel and cause power outages across the state," Greitens said in a statement.


It's starting to sound like the NFL might have to postpone this game...Steelers probably arent going to be able to fly in on Saturday.

6 years ago I used to do homeowners claims for an insurance company. I would never call it an act of god in these cases, but rather an act of nature. Religious people sometimes freak out about that verbiage. One of my co-workers preferred to use the act of god reference, and I still remember some crazy guy fed exed a 7 pound stick to our office with a long angry rant about how we were screwing him and blaming god.

It makes perfect sense. Just owning a tree does not make you inherently liable. You have liability insurance on your insurance policy and then you have coverage for your own damage at your set deductible. Your LIABILITY insurance will ONLY pay for someone ELSES damages if you are at fault. You know, just like your auto liability insurance does. People would always lose their shit when they found out their neighbors liability insurance would not pay for their damage, and they instead had to go through their own policy and pay their deductible. Now if it's a dead tree or has ongoing problematic issues, that can be a different story. But any healthy tree will be prone to losing limbs in an ice storm or in 30-40mph+ winds. 95% of the time, it's going to be an act of nature.

If a tornado picks up your car, and flings it 7 houses down the road into the side of their house, you wouldn't try to sue the owner of the car would you? Same thought process.

look this has happened in the past - all of it - the available tickets - the dropping of the prices - etc etc - see Indy game - shit w/ 20 mins of work i can dig up some similar posts.

We will be just fine - Arrowhead will be loud - we will win. we will go to NE next week.

I might have, like 3 extra ticket and I will sell them for $20 each. Like, $150 seats. I paid $160 for them . FOR $20 but you just have to wait to find out.

The NFL doesn't give a Rat's Ass about the safety of the fans. NBC has paid a boat load of doe for that game at Noon Sunday, and as long as the players are there, they will play at Noon Sunday. If you can't make it to the ice rink, that's your problem. Clark already has your money.

Both of ^those^ are probably at least a little true. But that place will STILL be packed, just wait.

At this point it doesn't matter one way or the other. Weather's bad? Shit attendance from both fanbases. Weather is fine? Then you're dealing with the types of fans both Steelers and Chiefs who couldn't afford "face" value, live close enough to KC to buy said cheap tickets on a whim and either aren't worried about missing work Monday or don't have a job to go to Monday.

tl;dr it's a wash for "home field advantage from crowd noise" purposes.

I don't agree - but that's okay. We don't always have to.

Simply Red 01-13-2017 02:08 AM

I think there will be a large movement of tickets by and before Friday evening. Mostly local. It'll get loud still. Maybe down some - but it'll be plenty loud I bet.

Pasta Little Brioni 01-13-2017 02:12 AM

probably right - I think once it sinks in that ticket prices have plummeted, factor in the 38 degree high, the tickets will go like wildfire tomorrow - that town is full of maniacal Chief fans, this isn't Jacksonville or San Diego. I think Discuss has a point, about Pitt fans being like in say Iowa or Illinois, making the drive, but i don't believe it'll be an equal noise distribution between team fans. I just can't believe that they've started to cancel flights already - that to me seems drastic. It's still relatively early and it's a ways before noon on Sunday get here. We'll see how it shakes out - I bet it only rains.

#ICEBITCH

You won't have three extras unless something really crazy happens today in Mid-Mo. I leave STL at 9:45 and reports claim it won't hit here in full until afternoon.

So my district cancelling classes was a godsend. Probably wouldn't have made it had I left tomorrow.
