I'd already made my "Chiefs Game Today" post for this one, but right now at almost 7:00 pm I saw this article. Sure enough, just like last week when the Pittsburgh stadium was about half-full for the Chiefs game, today most stadiums had far too many empty seats.
Notice the article did not feature a shot of Arrowhead.
That's because when they showed the panorama of our stadium at one point during the game's telecast today, it was full.
It was genuinely a sea of red.
Now yes it was the first home game for the Chiefs. Yes Arrowhead is generally a fine place to see a football game. And yes the Chiefs explosive offense is quite the attraction.
But still.
The Chiefs fans are the best in football.
In spite of the idiotic things the NFL is doing to shoot themselves in the foot -- I notice Roger Goodell has not been fired yet, hmm, maybe some day -- the Chiefs still draw because of the superlative passion in The Chiefs Kingdom. The NFL and its competitive duplicity can eviscerate attendance and very justifiably so, but we'll still support our Chiefs.
Just a pretty fine marvelous thing I wanted to add.
Again, here's my take on the game itself.
