For THOSE that DID NOT renew your season tickets

Kerberos · 02-25-2008, 10:32 PM

So my buddy and I decided NOT to renew our season tickets this season and YES that was an bitter-sweet decision to make.

So It gets down to the last day to send in the first payment which was the 15th and I get an email from KCChiefs.com on the 14th telling me the day is near and please send $.

I email them back and tell them: "Please sell my ticket to someone that cares as I am done wasting my time and money."

Last Monday the 18th I get an email back telling me they recieved my email and that they have noted my response in my account.

OK Whatever...........

Then Friday last week I get a PHONE call from someone inside ticket sales:

Q: I was wondering what prompted your decision to drop your season ticket after 18 years?

A: "Carl Peterson"

Q: We are trying to rectify the current situation by putting a competitive team on the field next year is they anyway we can convince you to stay with us and renew your season tickets?

A: "Yea ........ FIRE CARL PETERSON" !

Q: Well sir I can certaily sense your frustrations and I hope if you change your mind in the future you will call us back and resume your trek with the KC Chiefs.

A: "I refuse to drink anymore of the Carl Peterson KoolAid so if that is all you have to keep me satisfied then don't bother calling me back". Click.

I can only hope these things are recored for quality assurance purposes.

Q: We are trying to rectify the current situation by putting a competitive team on the field next year, one that is good enough to keep the fanbase coming back for more. Is they anyway we can convince you to stay with us and renew your season tickets?

A: "Yea ........ FIRE CARL PETERSON" !

Q: Well sir I can certaily sense your frustrations as Carl hasn't done anything in 2 decades and I hope if you change your mind in the future you will call us back and resume your trek with the KC Chiefs by dipping far deep into your pockets as Chiefs season tickets will more than double in the next 10 years.

FYP

to that last comment.

1. Chiefs sure as **** don't record shit from the fans or more than anything....
2. They simply don't give a **** and with Carl around, I'm going with option 2.

Sweet.

big nasty kcnut · 02-25-2008, 11:30 PM

Mean but sweet move since i hate carl with every fiber of my being. Hope clark get the message.

REDHOTGTO · 02-26-2008, 09:37 AM

at least you got a phone call, all i got was an email stating "while we understand some peoples frustration we are trying to put together a championship team and hopefully you will return" after 13 years basically "goodbye"
sucks

**Rain Man** · 02-26-2008, 09:45 AM

Nice work.

The really sad thing about the 4-12 season is that Chiefs management can rationalize and say, "They're canceling because we went 4-12," when that's not the reason at all.

StcChief · 02-26-2008, 09:51 AM

Perfect, maybe a real Poll requested by Clark will be put together after all the non-renewals are done.

If not by then bet your ass when the blackouts start.

Good job

Also, for some reason, I find it quite funny that they called it a "trek".

Reerun_KC · 02-26-2008, 10:02 AM

Awesome!

Mile High Mania · 02-26-2008, 10:08 AM

I'd be curious to find this out... what if you were to call them back now and request the same seats. Are they available? What would be the cost they charge you (after 18 years) for those same seats or a slight improvement?

Just curious... I just wonder how fast they were snapped up by someone else.

Luzap is snapping them up like crazy. Before opening kickoff, I wager that he'll control half the upper deck.

This will be the impetus for a startling 8-8 season next year. The Chiefs have heard your voices and they have listened!!!
