I almost had a seizure when the Sack animation came on.

I'm sure it wouldn't be nearly as bad if it were daylight out; but holy tits it almost hurt my eyes. I will say, the ribbon board and display aren't as overkill as the ones at the K though.

It's not even actually on the ribbon board, it was on the smaller scoreboard above it.

Are they still playing the same shitty music?

I don't go often enough to know what shitty music they normally play.

I like the ribbon board and the concourses. Took a little getting used to at first. And the bathrooms are huge. It is gonna take getting used to looking across instead of to the side to keep trak of the score, yard, down, time, etc.

Pretty much.

Just think what Arrowhead will be like with 77k fans, loud music and that ribbon board. I think it will give us an ever better home field advantage.

And for the dude who thinks 2MM could have covered it, you must have never done or paid for any major construction. I rented an LCD video display which was 20 or 30 feet high by 50 feet for a project i was working on and it cost 100k or something crazy. Now thats tiny compared to what the new video boards and ribbon are in KC.

the concourse onto side was no bigger at all.

Concourses on upper deck home side were the same size. Bathroom by my section was still a trough. I was disappointed in that. Otherwise I was impressed.

the lower level will benefit from the more enclosed layout during the cold games (ie wind)

all entry and exits are guided to the corners via the spirals..and spirals are smoking areas...it is double and triple wide in certain parts..ribbon board does take getting used to..but it's cool...flatscreens under the overhangs..you can tell the bottom bowl lost some seats, but it's not that noticeable


too much emphasis and overkill of the same cheerleaders...

These were taken by an amateur with a disposable camera, so the quality isn't the greatest.

The Dynamic Ribbon & upper scoreboard. I didn't care for the black background of the scoreboard, with the grey shading they used it reminded me of Raiders colors.

So that's what a sellout looks like?

LMAO That was taken about 10 minutes before kickoff. The lower level did fill up quite a bit more but the club & upper levels stayed about the same.
