CHIEFS CELEBRATE 50 YEARS IN KANSAS CITY

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – On May 22, 1963, Chiefs Founder Lamar Hunt announced he was relocating his professional football franchise to Kansas City from Dallas. Four days later, the Dallas Texans officially became your Kansas City Chiefs.

In celebration of the club’s 50 years in Kansas City, Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt informed fans on Saturday that all season ticket account holders – both existing and new accounts – will be given one personalized Chiefs Nike jersey per account to honor them for their support and enthusiasm over the years.

“We are very excited to be celebrating 50 years in Kansas City,” Hunt said. “My family and I are extremely grateful to be a part of this great city and we have built so many fond memories here through the years. When my dad brought this team to Kansas City, he knew there was something special about this place. For 50 years, the Kansas City community has rallied around the Chiefs, and for that, we want to say thank you for being the best fans in the NFL.”

Each account holder will have the option to choose name/number and size on their brand new Chiefs jersey which was just released by Nike. The jersey will come with a commemorative STH (Season Ticket Holder) patch that can be placed onto the right shoulder, opposite of the Lamar Hunt AFL patch, if the recipient so chooses. Account holders will also have the option to purchase additional jerseys at a discounted rate.

The jersey giveaway is the first of many events and promotions that will take place in 2012 to pay tribute to the fans. Details of other initiatives will be announced at a later date.

“This is a great opportunity for us to say thank you to our fans for the support they have given us,” said Head Coach Romeo Crennel. “The season is just around the corner, and I’m really looking forward to seeing our fans out there in that Sea of Red cheering us on.”

Below are details on how season ticket account holders can obtain their jersey, compliments of the Chiefs. To become a Season Ticket Holder fans can visit www.kcchiefs.com/tickets.

What does AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, cable provider, satellite provider, Royals and so on give any customer?
That is right not a damn thing other than a service that you asked for that drops calls, gets slow, goes out in the weather, and frustrates you.

the Best way to sell tickets would be bring in a Star QB.

just sayin.

Do we really need 2 thread for the same thing?
How about a combination.

It isn't this in particular. It is just another thing that GoChiefs will use to complain and bitch about Clark and Pioli.

Well, you know they wanted Peyton here. That would have been a wet dream come true for Clark. Imagine Arrowhead if Peyton would have signed here. Ugh. Bummer.

It's sad. We should have a really great defense and running game this season. If only Cassel could elevate his game to play at Trent Green level, but I know that's unlikely as hell.

If this thread isn't proof that people will complain about anything, nothing is.

Saw an authentic replica at Ace Sports for 49. On sale from 125.

Thought about getting a Flowers jersey

I don't have a contract with my internet/cable provider, so that's not the same for me, but I do get a guaranteed price for 2 years and can quit any time... I have a contract with my cell phone provider, and what I get out of it is a deep discount on phones.

But, it's still not the same at all... I'm satisfied with those providers 99% of the time. They provide a service 24/7/365. I could pay for 6 months of cable+internet for the cost of going to 4 or 5 Chiefs games. If I don't like my cable or internet or cell provider, I can choose another one.

It's a nice perk, not arguing that... and based on the responses I've seen here and on their FB page, it's working out for them. They could probably raise parking to $35 next year, and you still have to pay full price for preseason tickets, and get no other benefits for being a STH besides being able to buy more crap, but at least you get a jersey...

[lcarus]

So I take it the 100 dollar jerseys are replicas and the 250 jerseys are authentic? I don't know if I'll ever get one of these, replica or not. They're just way too expensive.

These jerseys will be nicer than the Reebok replicas. The front and back where the numbers are printed are solid material, not jersey cloth...the numbers always looked like shit screen printed onto those reebok replicas. These should look pretty decent though.
