After Ganz, and Marty coming in, that only made it stronger. I made sure to watch every game at a sports bar or live. I only went to a few games at Arrowhead as I was a college student living on my own and didnt have the funds.

Leaving KC in 1995, and Sunday Ticket not yet available everywhere, I spent a lot of Sunday's in sports bars, but I still got to see games....

By the time the Herm years rolled around, I took it as a personal challenge to see every game. It was like my very own IronMan.

In all of that time, there is one game I didnt watch live... last years Buffalo/KC game in week 5. I knew they were going to get slaughtered and the team had been playing so poorly, I refused to watch that team play below their standards.

I wasnt wrong, but it did hurt a little to skip it. I did watch it, but on GamePass after the fact...so I dont think that counts. Chalk me up for 1.

I take it the difference between not wanting to watch them lose to the Bills last season and, well, the 20 years prior... was you were expecting shitty football for 20 years?

I'd rather watch an undermanned and less talented KC team pull wins out of their asses like they did in the 90's, than watch an SB caliber talented team shit the bed against anyone.

After SB54, I expect nothing but the best, and the team was for all intents and purposes the same, if not better, after the OL improvements and they were embarrassing.
