Very, very similar.

Wermhead should have been working the frosty malt concession.

It looked almost empty at the end.

30 to 35 thousand. Kind of like being at a big Royals game. It was so freaking cold, kept pretty warm we left after the last Miami touchdown. I had enough of the cold by then.

That cold started to really bite into you near the end of the third qtr.

Yeah that is when it hit. The wind was the killer.

I find it sad that the Chiefs fans are doing this, they have never done that before.

The Chargers fans have filled Qualcomm every game this season, Even when they fell to 4-8 against Atlanta.

You'd think it'd be the other way around.

It had to be done... It was forced on us in 2006, and each game it slowly began to die off...

Give us a real NFL GM and coach and it will fill up quickly...

bull****. If the chargers were 2-12 and it was 5* out, Qualcomm would be empty. You guys needed an extension to sell out on a warm, sunny day. It was the second coldest game in the history of Arrowhead.

Basically, by the end, the shaded areas of the stadium were empty and the sunny areas were full. We were dying in the club level in the shade, but at halftime we moved down to the visitors side lower level and it was much better.

I know it was dog azz cold

but what was the estimated high number in attendance?

I think that most fans actually stayed until Thigpen slipped and failed to get the first down.

I went, stayed for the whole game.. our seats had pretty much no wind luckily.
I thought it was a decent game.. Second half was a bit uncomfortable in every way. lol
I really thought there would be LESS people there, considering the weather and our record. Had a blast as usual.. Arrowhead is awesome. Did anyone else catch that dude getting carried out after an altercation in the lower level around section 131.. fool did NOT want to get ejected.
