ArrowheadKingdom.org when I moved to Tampa area. We now have 129 chapters in 40 states. And are in 6 international countries.
I knew 2 other Chief fans from CP that lived in the Tampa area. After a couple of years we were filling our place and Chief fans were wanting a chapter in their city. We expanded to Florida and the South. Then people heard of us all over the USA and wanted their own chapter.
I know I've touched fans with AK. They have told me at tailgates that I've traveled to and sought me out. They wanted to tell me how much they appreciate the chapter in their city. They left KC for jobs etc. and were lonesome, not finding any friends etc. They sometimes cry and are very emotional. They joined their AK local chapter and now have real life friends from the group. Thats happening in all the chapters.
Going into my 15 year now, still never pocketed a penny out of my efforts.
