Chiefs We need a simple three-question test to ward off bandwagon fans. - Page 2

**Rain Man** · 02-14-2020, 04:04 PM

We know what's going to happen. A bunch of 'patriots fans' and 'broncos fans' and 'packers fans' and 'steelers fans' are going to start buying Chiefs stuff and pretending that they're one of us. We need a way to identify these people quickly. I propose that we develop a standard three-question test that we administer to determine whether we're dealing with an actual Chiefs fan versus a bandwagon fake fan.

The questions need to be questions that a person of any age can answer, so they probably shouldn't be about obscure events of the far past. And they need to be questions that a somewhat casual Chiefs fan could answer even if they're not a hardcore fan like us.

I propose the following. Let me know if you can answer them, and whether you're a legitimate fan or a bandwagon fan. We can adjust the questions if they're too easy or too hard. You can also propose alternatives.

My three proposed questions are:

1. Name at least two Chiefs players who died during their playing career.

2. In the final 2017 preseason game against the Titans, Patrick Mahomes II completed three long passes to this receiver, including an epic rollout that many believe to be his formal unveiling. Who was the receiver?

3. What two teams did Joe Montana's Chiefs defeat in the 1993 playoffs?

I feel that any legitimate Chiefs fan will know the answer to these questions, though I wonder if Q2 is a little too difficult. Thoughts?

My plan is that any time a person comes up to you and starts talking Chiefs, you administer this quiz to determine if they're worthy of your time or not.

pretty sure Q2 is D Rob but now I'm second guessing myself

Who cares? Winning attracts the casual fans. Happens in every sport. Every home game probably has 20% die hards that can legitimately answer inside questions about the franchise and name the starting roster........the 80% can tell you who Mahomes, Kelce and Hill are and then things will begin to get sketchy lol. It`s the same all over.

This is like the nerdiest thing I've ever seen. Also **** Camaros. Trans Ams are where it's at.

Interior quality was that of a Pontiac Sunfire. T-Tops leaked every time it rained. Seats felt like you were sitting on the floor. Paint quality was garbage.

But that V8 rumble... I loved that car. Piece of shit..

I have a 2001 and it's awesome.

Interior quality is pretty standard for cars of that generation.

My T-Tops never leak.

Seats feel like you're on the floor which is ****ING AWESOME. It's especially great for leggy women in the passenger seat. The low profile seating forces their legs to be at an angle that just make them delicious. Almost like putting a woman in some heels.

And yes, the answer to #2 is D-rob.

I got the first two instantly, it was the 3rd question that gave me trouble.

3. I was barely finished breastfeeding in 1993. But I'm going to guess Oilers and Broncos?

I barely remember Belcher but I certainly remember Delaney and DT passing away. It was Steelers (in OT) and Houston in 1993.

If anyone can describe to me the epicness of the crossbar hail mary that would work as proof.

NICE! I have a 2000 in my garage. It's navy blue and I'm in love with it. I'd love to see a pic of yours if you don't mind. I can post one of mine later (at work right now). Is yours a WS6?

There has to be a question that deals with our long suffering. I'd suggest "Name the kicker that shall not be named" or "Who was the Chiefs punter in the 2003 post season?".

Who was the punter we had that looked like Super Mario? That'd be a good one.
