Chiefs from Germany, Europe, outside USA
Are there Chiefs from Germany or other countries here? I am from Germany and I never met another Chief.

We definitely have some users in the UK and Australia at least. Check out Arrowheads Abroad if you haven't heard of them.
|
Members of Reddit are posting pics where they’re from.
|
Out of curiosity, how did you get into the Chiefs?
|
Are you in KC for the game?

I was born in Heidelberg. My mom is German and my dad was in the Army so we moved a lot. I started watching the Chiefs in the late 70's when dad was stationed at Fort Riley.

I have four good German buds (all in the Bundeswehr) who are die-hard Chief fans... currently in Hamburg, Munster, Bonn, and 1 deployed.

Probably the only Chief from the Middle East.
I was a huge soccer fan until I attended a Chiefs game then was intrigued by the strategy of how NFL games are built around Chiefs will win the SB this year btw. |

To add, Brit Chief is a vocal KC Chiefs supporter in the UK. His youtube channel is entertaining. :) |

Well I guess if either one of them decide to change their name at any point, they can hit us up and we can take care of that. :D |

One of my favorite cities on the planet. |
I used to live in Schorndorf, just east of Stuttgart. Birthplace of Gottlieb Daimler.

I minored in German, still have yet to go there though. :(
But I'm glad to see my Bundesliga team, Gladbach, is doing pretty well. |

Not too far from Roding we had dinner and beer on the Rhine River, by far the best beer I have ever tasted in my life. My host ate carp though, I couldn't even look, but there was plenty of interesting stuff to look at. :D Welcome to the Planet by the way! |

All of my military time was spent in Westpac so europe is very new and interesting to me. :D |

Rode on a ski lift once with a German guy and I asked him if he liked the Scorpions.
He got a big smile and said he was neighbors with the Rudolf Schenker. They went to school together and were still friends. At one point, helped Rudolf's little band that used to drive his Mom crazy from all the racket, set up equipment for the first few gigs. I asked if he thought they would end up one of the biggest rock bands in the world and he said "no". But Rudolf never had any doubts. Small world. A German guy skiing met a kid, that watched his neighbor's band from the 5th row- 25 years later after he carried their equipment to a gig with 5 people. |

I have seen them every time they have come to KC. The first time- Bon Jovi was opening for them on his first tour out- 1984, I think. 5th row on the floor and they rocked. I think Klaus has one of the best voices in rock- ever. Mathias is so underrated as a guitarist- his sound is amazing and unique. I wonder if the Scorpions are Chief's fans? :hmmm: They said they like Kansas City because we really know how to party!! I wish they would come to sing our National Anthem before the game!! |
I'm driving from Innsbruck to Garmisch to Ehrwald to Munich next week. :)
Recommendations appreciated! Gonna be pretty cold on top of Zugspitze I think. edit: and from my last trip to Regensberg... <blockquote class="imgur-embed-pub" lang="en" data-id="VhFyTAf"><a href="//imgur.com/VhFyTAf">View post on imgur.com</a></blockquote><script async src="//s.imgur.com/min/embed.js" charset="utf-8"></script> |

It's the home of Neu Schwanstein (the most famous castle on earth probably, and the inspiration for Disney's Magic Kingdom) but to me, Hohenschwangau is the more interesting of the two castles there. IIRC, you have to reserve a spot in a guided tour so you might have to call ahead though. |
I know the castles are there. But this trip is less sight seeing and more "four people getting hammered from Rome to Munich".
I'll be in Rome and Florence and I have a degree in Art History focused on Italian Renaissance and I can't get my party to go to any cathedrals other than St Peter's. We won't be going on any tours, unless they're bar tours. I'll have to reserve my sight seeing for another trip. I'm staying in Trento as well and that place looks amazing along with Bolzano. edit: and I forced everyone to come back on Saturday so I can be back in time for the Super Bowl. Don't let me down, Chiefs. |

BTW, the same is generally true of sausage (würst) as well. Every town has a little different twist on it. Pork, beef, spices, boiled, fried, yep.

I went to Germany for the first time a few years ago. Regensberg, Nuremberg, down the Danube to Vienna and then eventually Budapest.
My favorite place was Passau. Awesome college town. Two rivers meet, one is a different color from the glacier. http://www.passauer-land.de/wp-conte...ftaufnahme.jpg |

This thread makes me happy.
Glad to have all of you guys here. |
On the tour in Passau they said that Americans can attend college there for super cheap.
Then again the city has a penchant for flooding BAD. Also my girlfriend and I at the Gottweig abbey. Beautiful place that is still functional. Someone when I was there barfed on the lawn. People can't hold their apricot liquor I suppose. |

70km south of Stuttgart... beautiful Bayern. I was in Oberammergau in early December. My home is Lansing, Kansas. |
