Chiefs/Arrowhead New Code of Conduct. No standing during the game.

[BigRedChief]

Looks like the "wine and cheeseing" of the "New" Arrowhead patrons continues.

Good luck enforcing that one...

I'm all for making it a good experience...that can be a bit heavy handed if over done but I can assure you some moron who never sits in front of you can screw up a game day experience. I hear they are going to beef up the language efforts as well.

[OnTheWarpath15]

I'll say this: They are doing their damnedest to push out the hardcore fan and replace them with wine/cheesers/corporate types.

The problem is that KC doesn't have the corportate power to sell out an 80K stadium every Sunday. They'll need all the hardcore fans they can get - alienating them isn't going to get them very far...

No fighting? WTF?

That's what I was thinking.

Sounds like Carl is trying to kill the only real positive thing he helped to build.

FuK that. No way you tell someone to sit down and quit yelling/cheering on their team. You can sit down at halftime/

they will realize this when it's too late. and all the Hardcore fans are in the upper deck

[tomahawk kid]

I wonder if some of those haven't been on the books for awhile now, and just haven't been enforced........

[Dartgod]

They've always had a rule (more of a guideline) against continuous standing. Nothing new here.

[irishjayhawk]

Don't like it? Take your business elsewhere..

Oh, this isn't the dress code thread?

[Chiefs Pantalones]

This rule has always been in place. They can't kick 79,000 people out of the game when it's 3rd and 10 and the game is on the line.

I've seen more fights in Arrowhead than all other stadiums, in all pro sports, combined.

And that's a lot of stadiums.

Really? Why have a rule on the books thats not enforced? Just to use as an excuse to remove someone for whatever reason?

I've never, evah saw a fan told by an usher to sit down.

Yep. I worked for security at Arrowhead for 5 seasons and that rule has always been in place. It usually is that one asshole that stands during the whole game blocking everyone's view.

I had to tell alot of people to sit down.
