I just want to say thank you for an amazing time and being so welcoming. The stadium is beautiful and the atmosphere is just...wow. I thought the "loudest stadium" thing was just a gimmick, but boy was I wrong. Third downs were deafening! Leaving the stadium and people banging on the walls doing the Chop Chant (is that what you call it?) celebrating the win gave me goose bumps and worthy of taking a video showing everyone back home how passionate you guys are. Leaving our section, people were shaking our hands saying "good game" and some folks even wanted to take pictures with us.



Unfortunately I didn't get to experience a "real tailgate", we decided to do one of those all you can drink/eat packages in what looked like a designated "tailgate zone" that had tents and a big TV showing redzone. What a fantastic concept!
As far as the city goes, I have to plead ignorance. I thought I would be in the middle of nowhere with cornfields and bare land everywhere, but I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the beautiful lights of the city. The Power and Light district was probably my favorite part, like a playground for adults. And everything is so cheap compared to NYC prices! Westport and Country Club Plaza were both really cool little areas as well. Very surprisingly fun nightlife!


We got a chance to check out the WW1 Museum which was spectacular and had amazing views of the city. Also got to check out the College Basketball Experience which was an absolute blast with all the interactive things you can do.


Last but not least, the BBQ. Man, I wish I had more time to try out all the different places people raved about. Ended up going with Joes and Gates. I was burping up delicious smokey goodness all day. Mouth watering just thinking about it. Definitely worth the long lines.


TL;DR - Kansas City, you are awesome. Your fans are awesome, your city is awesome, your food is awesome. You people are some of the nicest people I have ever met and go out of your way for amazing hospitality. When people asked us "Why Kansas City?" this weekend, I said "because its different". I hope if I come back in the future, I can say "because its awesome!"


(P.S- I received a few messages from my post last week asking me about my experience so I thought it would be OK to share)

I came two years ago and hung out in Westport with bug guru luv tiny evel raiderhater and sedated, that place was fun as hell. I wasn't too impressed with gates bar b q last time, but KC Joes was better this time around. I also went to nzoners to catch the end of the 3pm games two years ago and hung out in the hallowed halls of the game room. Joes a great guy.

Also was getting hit on by very attractive Chiefs fan while her boyfriend went to the bathroom, that was fun too!! Haha and me and bugeater were on tv in the stands last time around!
