But by all means, hang in there and don't get a roof and don't sit in the seats either!
Sort of my point. It's obvious there are thousands of fans that will not show up in bad weather. I had 3 sets of friends offer me tickets for free yesterday. A dome would stop a lot of this behavior.

20 years ago, I would considered (and did) go to those freezing ass games. Now I am older and wiser. Sitting outside in that freezing weather to watch a sporting event doesn't sound like much fun to me. Especially when you can stay at home, watch multiple games and NFL red zone in the comfort of your own home.

Going to games is fun, but you are totally in the dark as to what is going on around the NFL during that game. TV is killing the stadium experience.

yesterday, I sat and watched the Denver/Houston on a 32 inch TV, had the Red Zone on a 37 and the chief's game on a 42 all in HD...

Plus it was 70 degrees and the beer/restroom was just a few feet away...

Hard to give that up to sit in 20 degree temps with Ice...

It's better to be warm and miserable than cold and miserable.

The beer/ restroom proximity alone is enough to stay home.

that too.

One reason, IMO, the 90's were a huge home field advantage was that it was really the only entertainment in town. I remember working at the Mall, and on Sundays during football season, the owner of the sandwich shop that I worked at would literally scheduling his staffing around Chiefs games because the entire town seemed to shut down.

Now with HD, very affordable big ass TVs, Sunday Ticket, home theaters etc.....there really isn't any incentive to see a game at the stadium for most fans.

the Arrowhead mystique has been dead probably since 2004.

that, and the Chiefs lose at home more often than not...

Every game I've been to in the last 8 years they've lost. I 'think' all of them have been December games. Or, at a minimum, they've been balls cold.

it would be one thing if the Chiefs were dominant at home etc, but they are completely unpredictable in which Chiefs team will show up.

So, my cold game days are over.

The Chiefs web site states: "Dating back to ’90, Kansas City owns the seventh-best regular season home winning percentage among all NFL teams with a 106-54 (.663) record over that span."

So it seems like they win at home more often than not.

It all depends on where you want to place the cutoff. What if you placed it at 2008?

And I can top that.....since the 80s they've won every super bowl they've played in.

Yep. I could have gone yesterday with free tickets but I said **** that. I have gone to multiple cold Chiefs game, the coldest being the 95 playoff game. Never again.

The final nail to the stadium experience will be the end of blackout rules that are coming

The Federal Communications Commission voted unanimously Wednesday to consider a proposal that would end blackout rules for televised sporting events.

The rules, first adopted in 1975, prohibit cable and satellite TV providers from offering a sports event if the game is blacked out on local broadcast television stations.

Dropping the rules would have the biggest impact on the NFL, which requires broadcasters to black out games if the local team does not sell out the stadium. The rules were originally intended to encourage fans to buy tickets to see the game live.

The FCC said it will review public comments before making a final decision on the regulations.

"Changes in the sports industry in the last four decades have called into question whether the sports blackout rules remain necessary to ensure the overall availability of sports programming to the general public," the commission wrote in the notice of proposed rule-making, which was approved Wednesday.

"In this proceeding, we will determine whether the sports blackout rules have become outdated due to marketplace changes since their adoption, and whether modification or elimination of those rules is appropriate."

Even if the FCC repeals its rules, it might not end sports blackouts altogether. Leagues, TV broadcasters and cable providers could still agree to contracts restricting access to games.

I couldn't agree more. It was pretty clear for this game that a lot of people feel that way. No way could I have handled that weather yesterday for the entire game.

But, but we are tough, and we don't need no freeking dome!/ 20,000 diehards
