Chiefs Arrowhead Club Level - FAIL

Many teams have done this. The Patriots' club level is embarrassingly empty most of the time. After halftime most of them stay inside to drink. When it gets cold, the section is constantly empty. It's the best viewing area in the stadium and no one sits there, while the diehard fans are in crap seats. Because the club seats are midfield and midheight the absence of screaming fans there means little homefield noise advantage. And I've seen it on TV when they air games from other teams. But the bottom line is, the owners don't give a shit. Kraft, Hunt, and the other owners doing this, all pocket shitloads of guaranteed corporate money. Whether those seats are empty, full of wine-and-cheesers, or full of rabid diehard fans, makes little difference to the owners' pockets. Just another nail in the coffin of live sports viewing. Between HDTV, multiple replay coverage, and climate-control, I have no need to leave my living room more than once a year for the "gameday assrape-my-income experience".
