Chiefs So I am thinking of buying season tickets....

jbwm89 · 07-14-2010, 08:37 PM

I am sure this is in the wrong thread if so sorry do your worst.

Me and 4 friends are thinking of getting Chiefs season tickets but we can only afford the $250 dollar seats. Anything I need to know? Am I completely wasting my money.

For your time, this is what you can look forward to when you visit my hometown for training camp in a few weeks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mP9d4wJMOnQ

The seats are fine. I used to have those seats, its a good way to start out as a season ticket holder. Besides with how the team has been you can sit almost anywhere.

I had them for over a decade until they got way too expensive. It is a blast to tailgate0unfortunately the Chiefs have sucked at home. Once it gets cold you can get tickets very cheap before thegame then move to just about anywhere you want in the stadium.

For some reason I read that as "I am completely wasting my money," and I was going to answer your question with 'no, looks like you've got it covered'... but if that second part is actually a question, then I think you should know that, yes, you are...

Seriously though, I was thinking about it, but figured I'd wait a year... they'll play the NFC North, so hopefully there will be a couple of really good games out of that, and hopefully they won't have a last place schedule again. The $250 seats would be a good deal.... I'm sure you'll be able to move down quite a bit for some games.

Yeah I would like to get a little bit more expensive seat but being college students there is no way in hell.

Dude with the crowds the way they have been you could get nose bleeders and move anywhere you want. I would venture to say that there still won't be a waiting list for tickets by the time your done with school. It is gonna take a few years to get the place ramped up again, but I believe we'll get there.

Yeah I am hoping not to have to get on a waiting list, it might be 3-4 years before im done with grad school. for the price if I can sell half the tickets to friends for face or a little more it would be worth the money to go to a few games and tailgate.

Does anyone know if a parking pass included in the price or is it extra?

Parking pass is extra. Just pay for the cash lots, its cheaper than paying for a parking pass.

Eh, I wouldn't spend more than that on them right now, which is why I'm waiting... it's still fun to tailgate and be there, and $30/game is a good deal, especially if you're able to move down.... and I've gotten several "Special pricing for on select season tickets, only $250 or $390!!" emails... so unless people are biting, I think you'll be able to move down quite a bit.

when you are standing in the parking lot on opening day, monday night football and bbq in the air, beer in hand, arrowhead in view, you will forget about the $$ you have spent to get there and you will be thankful that you are there to enjoy what most of us live for in KC! atleast that happens to me

Raiderhater58 · 07-15-2010, 05:39 PM

I started with the $250 seats last year, seats arent bad its the climb up that will kill ya

Upgraded this year and moved down 22 rows, pretty happy about that.

I've been to a few games but you just can't beat watching it on the big screen TV at home with a cooler full of beer , cleaning your handgun, and getting a BJ.
