That's cutting it DAMN close.
Basically less than an hour to clear the lot. Royals are done by 4:30 or 5:00. Chiefs parking opens 3.5 hours prior to the game. 9:00 start means gates open at 5:30. There's no ****ing way that's going to work, even if only 10k show up that day. Hell, what happens if the game goes to extra innings? |

IIRC, last time they did that, they told everyone who went to both games they would have to leave and come back in... I'm sure that was successful.

Moving the game to noon is a potential problem as it is, an extra inning game causes all sorts of headaches. Move the game to the open date on Thursday, make it a day game, and don't sweat it. The Royals are playing Cleveland at home over the weekend, so it doesn't affect them. The A's would get a day off after traveling in from Oakland after a Sunday afternoon start(and lose two hours in the process traveling) and would only have to travel to Minnesota after the game on Thursday night for a Friday night game. Instead, they'll have a home game Sunday that starts at 3:00pm KC time - will last until 6:00pm KC time - maybe if they are lucky, they get to the charter by 8:00PM KC time - then have a 4 hour flight that gets them into town around midnight, and maybe in bed by 1:00am. Then get to play a day game after traveling two time zones. I'd be pitching a bitch if I were Oakland. Of course, that's WAY too easy of a solution. Let's do it the way that has the potential for absolute ****ing disaster. |

This is going to be a logistical nightmare. People leaving, people coming, A's bus leaving, Chargers' bus coming. Cutting it too close.

It's ridiculous that they make people leave and then come back. Talk about a traffic nightmare. They need to close off the far lots for Chiefs fans that are going to both games to use.

Let me explain. I've done both, and I can tell you with absolute certainty that it takes longer to get out of the A, B, C, etc lots that it does the G/H/Grass lots on the other side. I park in Phil's old spot, right under the sign every time I'm up there, and 99% of the time, within 10 minutes of getting to my car, I'm out of the complex, down 40 Highway and waiting at the light to turn left onto I-70 east for the trip home. The other side? Never less than an hour. And it's a MUCH shorter distance. Plus our seats are on the G/H side of Arrowhead, and my favorite Texan and his tailgating spot is right there as well. |
