How did you become a Chiefs fan?
 
Before cable TV we just had to watch whoever the TV station put on. So I went from being a Bears fan to a Cowboys fan. Then the Chiefs moved to KC and I was here waiting for them.

I was born in KS and although I moved to FL when I was 2, my first football game ever was in Arrowhead Raiduhs vs Chiefs when I was 5 years old. Chiefs fan ever since.

Born and raised in Leavenworth, Ks.
First game ever was in old Municipal Stadium, also when I was 5.

I moved to Columbia in 1990 and started following the "local" team. Had kind of followed the Seahawks before that since I was in Portland.

Once we moved to Flagstaff, I had already fallen in love with those great defenses along with the big backs. Besides, you have any idea how hard it would be to be a fan of the Cardinals?

Born and raised in Kansas City, Missouri. My Father was a big Chiefs fan and it rubbed off on me. Thanks Dad. :)

I was raised to hate the Raiders.

I had a passing teenage girl interest, but I was too cool to hang out with my daddy watching football and his Chiefs. :roll:

So I got married and realized if I didn't want to lose my husband every Sunday for a large chunk of the year, I'd better learn to love it.

Should be part of the wedding vows.

Love, honor, and root for the his favorite team.

Had an aunt that was a professor in Warrensburg. She got me fired up for the Chiefs in the 60's.

Born a Chiefs fan since my Dad's side of the family is in KC. Also a Husker by birth. :)

My college room mate was best buddies with ex-Chief QB Bill Kenney. Partied with him well before he was a Chief and after. Started going to the games when they came to Oakland and been a Chief fan ever since! Works for me!

Laying on the floor on the age of 7 watching the Chiefs beat the Vikings in SBIV...

That was it.

The Chiefs I can understand but that Husker thing is a character flaw.

Several years ago my brother was at Whiteman AFB in Warrensburg and started following the Chiefs. I took a look at a few games and fell in love with them as well.

My father was a Texans fan, watched them from the begining in Dallas. That explains his deep seated hate towards the Cowboys and the Raiders. I once asked him who he would rather see win between the Raiders and Cowboys, he said the Royals.
