Chiefs Standing at Chiefs game? - Page 4

Molitoth · 11-25-2009, 09:24 AM

I'm sure a lot of us have been yelled at for standing at a chiefs game by the cranky people people who don't ever get up and cheer. What is CP's take on standing at the chiefs game?

Poll coming.

why would people sit at a football game?

Direckshun · 11-25-2009, 07:42 PM

I have a relative that has asked people to sit down at Arrowhead. I know; I was with him when it happened.

He was quickly berated by the people in front of him.

I should mention that my relative is an old, old man, and not necessarily "with it."

If they're not jackasses about it, I'll be polite about disagreeing with their point of view.

if you want to sit and watch, get club seats or stay home.

THis. I can't talk right for days after a game.

I also agree with leaving the f bombs at home. Taking both my kids to their first game at Arrowhead next weekend - hope they get to see the Chiefs put a butt whooping on the

. My 7 yo daughter will rub it in the face of her classmates.

Raising them right even in donktown.

Never understood how a football 'fan' could just sit and watch the entire game. **** that, stand up and make some ****ing noise, or else take your ass home and watch from your couch.

I've only been to one game at Arrowhead, and everyone in my section was up and yelling on every definsive play, and every big play on offense. Never once heard anyone being told to sit down, but I hear about it all the time and it pisses me off.

KCbroncoHATER · 11-25-2009, 09:56 PM

If you are going to stand you should always stand with the back of your legs touching your upright seat. The farther you move forward towards the seat in front of you it makes it that much harder for the person behind you to see.

Fritz88 · 11-25-2009, 09:58 PM

Sit down and be loud, let other people see.

On D, Stand up.

Pablo · 11-25-2009, 10:04 PM

You should stand unless you're an infant, crippled, or a pussy.

If you're a pussy, just stay home.

KCbroncoHATER · 11-26-2009, 12:08 AM

I have been to 300 games at Arrowhead, I think I have the right to sit down when the offense is on the field, so sit your ass down.

The defense is a different, you are required to stand unless we are 4 scores down.

ArrowheadMagic · 11-26-2009, 12:16 AM

Havent had anyone ask me to sit in a couple of years, of course, now a days, unless its a fan of another team, the seats are empty.

Side note, if the stadium was that empty with Steelerwagon fans..... what will Cleve/Buffalo look like?

KCbroncoHATER · 11-26-2009, 12:30 AM

Well, after thinking about what I said above, it's true up to a point.

When attending BIG games I am cool with standing the whole time.

Were any of you at the Bills game back in the 90's.

It was far and way the loudest I have ever heard Arrowhead, bar none.

Wow ... what a day that was.
