How many tickets are you looking for?

Holy ****

40 dollars to park

And you can only rotate one direction

Must park in spot and only use 3 feet behind your car

Sad

Uber drop off is up by Taco Bell on the hill

For all the talk of how we have the greatest tailgate atmosphere in the NFL, they would rather you show up at 11 so you can go inside and spend your money and their incredibly marked up food and beverage. Plus as an added bonus to them they don't have to pay volunteers cleaning up the massive piles of shit left behind by all the tailgates.

notice the number of tables and coolers is lower in "the new parking experience"

Eat more moldy snacks and chug those 10 dollar bud lights

And holy shit note the oversized pass on the left. Must cost 100 or more

At least the diagram is accurate. All the fans appear to be passed out / laying on the ground.

ROFL

On the right they are playing catch and tossing bags

On the left that shit is gone

It SHOULD be the opposite, but it doesn't seem to be. Since they are pricing out much of the common fans, one would think that would lend itself to a more affluent, less Natty Light filled atmosphere.

Nope, just means the Natty Lighters save up for one game a year, and do it up right when they go. Its turned into a scorched earth People of Walmart sometimes.

After doing a whole 5 minutes of research of the subject, it looks like Arrowhead charges right at the average for parking in the NFL. Doesn't mean I like it, or you have to like it, but there you go.

Dallas charges $75 to park. They're the highest.

:eek:

FYP

If a car of four people can't afford ten bucks each to park then you all need to get better jobs.

Your choice to drive a van!

Mark Donovan responds to criticism:

Quote:

“I know everybody wants to talk about the revenue. What we’re focused on is the fans’ experience,” Donovan said. “Across the National Football League, the No. 1 issue for all sports teams in this league and most other leagues is parking and traffic — getting people in and getting people out. That affects the fan experience. What we’re trying to do is enhance that experience by being more efficient and simplifying them.

“We don’t want to sell $40 parking passes. We want you to (buy) in advance and get a $30 pass.”

The advance passes are available at the Arrowhead Stadium box office with no convenience fees charged, while passes sold on the Chiefs’ website or Ticketmaster will incur additional fees.

“There’s always been a convenience charge as long as there’s been a technology out there providing that convenience. … If you go to our box office right now and buy parking for whatever game you want or for the whole season, you pay no convenience charge,” Donovan said. “If you go to our website and buy directly through Chiefs.com and go to the link, you pay a much smaller convenience charge, but that’s exactly what it is. It’s standard across the industry. It’s not just the Chiefs.”

"We're raising prices to make it easier for you"

GFY, Mark. Parking at Arrowhead wasn't an issue until you stuck your nose into it.
