Watched the game at Century Link.
- A few hundred Chiefs fans in attendance. Saw a #7 jersey, wanted to puke! #25, #88, #87 were well represented. Couldn't glimpse a #29 or a #50. There was a Rodgers #12 and a Bronco Manning #18 too.
- Was almost a full stadium, noise level was still pretty high for preseason. The fans really love their team, hard to believe the Seahawks were bad until 2010.
- Was surprised to see Clark in attendance, he signed a few autographs near the visitor player tunnel. He looked older in person than I thought.
- Didn't see Houston at all, did he even travel? Berry was not dressed.
- Man these players look gigantic in person especially the OL, maybe due to the shoulder pads. I am also convinced that there is no one larger than Bailey #97.
- The game itself was nothing to write home about, terrible actually. Dee Ford stood out, once when pass covering the RB leading to a huge gain and once when he charged towards the QB and completely abandoned his gap when the RB galloped past him. WRs has dropsies. Ware just sat there as he was being carted off. Glad to hear it is not an ACL.
- #71 Mitch was offering advice to the backup OL on the sidelines after repeated hands to the face penalties.
- #72 couldn't wait to get to the locker after the game. He was already by himself at the 15 yard line as Seattle was taking a knee.
- Mahomes seems like a nice kid. I was shouting aloud his name as he was walking back and he waved and smiled back. Sherman was nice enough to sign on a few caps. Gaines and West dropped their game gloves off to kids.
- I happened to stand next to a Seahawks fan who knew Peters pretty well. Shirtless Peters in all his tattoo glory and he had a good chat while I just stood there in awe.
Overall a great experience apart from the quality of the game itself!
