Chiefs Making first trip to Arrowhead this weekend. what to expect? - Page 4

wheeler08 · 09-17-2009, 12:56 AM

My dad and I are driving 8 hours away from Indiana to see out first Chiefs home game. Been to a few Indy and Cincy, Chiefs games.
Besides the game, looking forward to some KC bbq! Do they sell bbq in the parking lot anywhere, or do you guys just bring your own?
Seeing how we don't know anyone, was hoping they would have stands setup or something. Not really sure what to expect at the tailgating.

I second that. It will most likely be a loss.

One year Arrowman showed up wearing his Raiders jersey. A group of drunken Chiefs fans misunderstood and beat the shit out of him.

Don't worry about the details, make it your own experience and enjoy yourself. Yes, eat great food, eat barbeque, whatever you decide. Drink in the parking lot at 9 AM, get a good buzz. Watch people, enjoy the atmosphere. Walk around, feel the vibe. Get into the stadium early, find your seat. Find the nearest restroom. Buy an $8 beer, or 4. Check out the souvenir stands and food/beer stand. Just soak it in, go watch pre-game warm-ups. Take a camera. Just live it. It's Arrowhead. I'm pretty sure that if you're in the parking lot by 9:30 you'll be able to smell the air ... I'm also sure you may see a few Raiders fans being harassed ... You'll be fine.

You will love it. I went in 07 and again last year, and fell in love with the place, the people, the atmosphere, although it dropped off a bit last year. Stayed at the hotel across the street and walked, you will absolutely love the atmosphere. Have fun!

I will say I love our city and the people are awesome. The people during tail gating and pregame are awesome, but if we get our asses beat the nice KC folks turn bat shit crazy. If the game is out of hand, head to the parking lot and bring a lawn chair. There will plenty of fights especially if a Raider's fan starts popping off.

Raider's fans getting lippy at Arrowhead=Epic FAIL

We are staying in at a Super 8 in Independence. I seen there was a wal-mart close by. Dad wants a new red shirt for game day, his is others are faded. Wal-mart a decent place to go for Chiefs shirts in KC?
I figured since all we can get is Colts shit in southern IN, then yours would have Chiefs stuff.
