Chiefs Email from a Chiefs Sales Rep

beavis · 12-04-2008, 05:08 PM

So I received an email today from the Chiefs asking me to buy season tickets for the 2009 season. It came from an individual person rather than a generic no reply email address, so I decided to see what his pitch was. His replies just make me shake my head. The last one, I couldn't even come up with a response for. Next post will contain the email.

I will write your name down. I have to tell you though, I have a long list of people who will buy as soon as Herm and Carl are no longer here. If you get a deposit down today for only $100 per seat you

are guaranteed great seat locations for 2009. Herm and Carl could be gone, they could not. Worst case scenario you have great seats, or you can simply apply that deposit to single game tickets next

year. If you wait, you might not have a shot. Think it over and let me know. If not, I will hold your name and contact you at a later date.

For many years there was a waiting list. There no longer is. Right now is the perfect time to become a season ticket holder if you have ever thought of becoming one. All you need to do is put down a

deposit of $100 per seat and we can lock you into guaranteed seat locations. Once Season Ticket prices are released you can either move forward on being a 2009 Chiefs Season Ticket Holder OR use the

deposit for 2009 Single Game Tickets. We have great seats available for season tickets. The locations that we have open have not been available for the better part of a decade. Just let me know if you

would like get discuss seat locations and get a deposit down. Thanks!

I got a call today from someone selling Chiefs single game tix for the Chargers game. I have no idea who it was (my wife answered) but it's the first time anyone from the Chiefs has called personally trying to sell tix.

Sam Hall · 12-04-2008, 05:54 PM

They are going to get destroyed at home next year.

This is the line that floored me.

This is their biggest selling point? They might fire the clowns in charge?

Thanks for protecting the innocent there Beavis. I'm on that long list as well.

Clark needs that information.

You have to give the sales guy credit. That was a pretty well thought-out response.

Thats what I was thinking.

Home against Giants, Steelers, and Cowboys, plus they play Washington, Philly, and Baltimore on the road. Ouch. Looks like we may have another top 10 pick even if we do improve a little.

MahiMike · 12-04-2008, 08:06 PM

Is this a real person? I would think management wouldn't like that sales pitch. I, for one, love it myself.

If it wasn't a real person, it's the smartest robot I've ever dealt with.

Sounds like the people who sell tickets to the Shrine Circus are having a better go than the Chiefs!

That is SO AWESOME in its utter and complete sadness...
