***Official Home Opener and 49ers games***

[Canada]

I have ordered 20. I would like to make this game the ChiefsCrowd get together. I will still be attending the 49ers game Week 3 as well. Anyone interested in tickets for the opener, let me know.

I have 4 for myself
Vanilla Garilla - 2
Ryfo (I will hold 2 for you if u want to go to this game)
Stricken721(I will hold 2 for you if you want to go to this game too)

That leaves 12 tickets still available. I can try and order more if there is any interest!!

If there is still enough interest in the 49ers game I can order tix for that as well. Let me know who is interested and I will get ot work on it!! :bananen_smilies046:

[Ryfo18]

Ehh gonna be tough for me to make the MNF game. There you go changing plans on me!

My vacation for the year is going to be about gone after my honeymoon, so it'll be really tough for me to swing it.

[tornadospotter]

No way I can make the home opener. I have no vacation time yet. The 49ner game I can. Monday night games are not job friendly for me.

I'm in for both games!!! I'll offer my second ticket to Kelly first for both games...with the games that close together, he likely won't be able to do both, especially with living in Wisconsin. I'll find someone to take the second ticket if he can't make it. :D

How much money is this total you need by June 1st for two tickets to both games? I need to include it in my May budget. Thank you my RED & GOLD blooded Canadian friend! :D

[stricken721]

So how's the attendance list looking?

[Canada]

So how's the attendance list looking?Not so good. We dont have enough for a full order yet.

[GlennBree]

Do you know how many we're lacking? Isn't it 3 or so?

[Canada]

Do you know how many we're lacking? Isn't it 3 or so?

Im just looking now. I will have 20 tix for the opener as I have already paid the deposit. Im not sure on the 49ers game as several people have had to cancel (including myself) I will get the list together and post it.

[GlennBree]

10-4

[Canada]

This is who I have for MNF so far

Canada - 3
Stricken- 2
GlenBree-2
Coach - 1
PBATrucker -2
VanillaGarilla - 2
TammieTailgatr - 2
Connie Joe - 2


16 tickets spoken for, there are still 4 left if anyone is interested!!

[Canada]

OK, I have paid the deposit for the MNF tickets. They (Arrowhead sales) would like to be paid by May 14th. It looks like tickets will be around $80 for lower level endzone, buy they might go up a bit because it is Monday Night. There are still 3 tickets available for anyone who wants them. Here is the list I have so far!!

Canada - 4
Stricken- 2
GlenBree-2
Coach - 1
PBATrucker -2
VanillaGarilla - 2
TammieTailgatr - 2
Connie Joe - 2

There are 17 in total, if anyone is going to have trouble with payment be the 14th of May, PM me and we will see what we can work out. Anyone interested in the other 3 tix, send me a message!!:bananen_smilies046:

[GlennBree]

Ok~ I'm ready to get ours! What EXACTLY am I to do next!

[hometeam]

wow.. i needed 4 tickets for the monday night game :(

What seats can you get or what seats are they?

[Canada]

What seats can you get or what seats are they?

Im looking at lower level endzone. Im trying for around the 40 yard line but most likely the endzone.

[Connie Jo]

Ok~ I'm ready to get ours! What EXACTLY am I to do next!

This is my question too! Who do I send the money to, exactly how much...$160 for my two tickets?

Oh, and in case you didn't get my reply message at FB...scratch me for the 49er's tickets. Kelly bought two upper level Season Ticket seats last week, and I'll use those when I attend the 49er's game, but we still want to keep the lower level tickets for MNF through Canada's Chiefs Crowd efforts, and sit with the Chiefs Crowd group MNF.

Also, since there has been some recent speculation among my family and local friends...I now feel the need to clarify among all my friends, that Kelly and I are very good friends, nothing more, not a 'couple' so to speak. Fricken small town gossip...UGH!

BTW...I'm not cancelling out on being at the 49er's game, haha...I'll be at that one too, just didn't need tickets through the group sales efforts since I'll use the upper level season ticket seat now for all home games except MNF it appears. :)

[GlennBree]

tik tok :)

[Canada]

To all of those attending the Chiefs vs Chargers MNF game. I will be sending you info about payment and who to contact tomorrow. I just spoke with the group sales manager and I will be sending her the final list of orders tonite.

We have however run into a slight glitch. Turns out that the tickets for the home opener are also sold in conjunction with tickets to another game. Meaning: I have to buy 20 tickets to another game to be eligible for the MNF tix. I have decided to go ahead and place the order and have paid the deposit on an order of 20 tickets to the Chiefs v 49ers Week 3. The tickets are available at a discounted price. Lower level tix will be $76 and upper deck seats are available for $50. Anyone who is interested in this game please send me a PM ASAP!! They are going to be available on a first come first serve basis. I can order more if there is a need.:bananen_smilies046:

[Ryfo18]

Oh shoot Canada...whatcha gonna do if you can't find enough to take the 20 tickets for the 49ers game? You're not even coming to the 49ers game now are you?

Oh he's coming (with a little peer pressure from the rest of us).

[Coach]

I'm in for the MNF game, but won't be there for the 49ers game.

If you need someone to buy some seats for the 49ers game let me know and I will help fill our quota if you don't have enough takers.

[Connie Jo]

Oh he's coming (with a little peer pressure from the rest of us).

I hope so!! Tailgating wouldn't be the same without Canada's presence! hahaha
:sFl_canada2:

I originally had my name on Canada's list for the 49ers tickets, before the CC get together was changed to MNF after the schedule was announced, & then added my name to the MNF list as well...but I still planned to do both.

Well, then last week Kelly bought us upper level Season Tickets. He had called a day or so after I was home from the cruise, and told me about the great deal being offered by the Chiefs for Season Tickets, but I didn't know he was buying mine until I got an email from the KC Chiefs Season Ticket sales rep congratulating me on being a Season Ticket holder, and telling me "Kelly" took care of paying for my ST seat.

I mailed Kelly a check this week though, paying for my own seat. I can't afford to pay Kelly for the Season Ticket seat, MNF tickets through Chiefs Crowd...AND the 49er's too, so told Canada last week to take me off the list for 49ers tickets. At that time it was no big deal, as Canada and Chiefs Crowd wasn't doing the 49ers group tickets any longer with switching the official CC get together to MNF.

I'm still going to the 49er's game, but feasibly need to use the Season Ticket seat, rather than pay for an extra ticket I don't need now. The MNF is an exception, and I'm keeping my name on the list for CC MNF group tickets...as I want to be with Chiefs Crowd sharing in that important of a game especially. I wish I could afford to do the same with the 49er's game, but I just can't now with paying for the ST too.

[Canada]

Oh he's coming (Im gonna send him the $$$ to get to KC).

Man that is so nice of you!!


I'm in for the MNF game, but won't be there for the 49ers game.

[buffman316]

This is going to be a fun tailgate for sure. Especially with a 9:15 start time!

[GlennBree]

Happy Happy Joy Joy...happy happy joy! I have purchased my MNF tickets!

I couldn't be happier! Well...unless of course this was September! :)

[soccr00gk]

Hey I just found this site, and I am super stoked. I grew up in KC and currently work for the Army in Hawaii. I am going to be back for my 10 year class reunion the following week, and I am trying to get tickets for the MNF game. I haven't been able to get to a game for almost 3 years, (two of which I was in Iraq). I would like to get involved with your trip and make a day of it. Please let me know. I would need 2.

if it wasn't for the espn story I never would have found this site.

you guys rock

[Canada]

There's an ESPN story about Chiefscrowd?

Send me a PM and I will see if I can still add more onto our ticket order. I need your name and phone #. You wont have to give me any payment info or confidential information. All payments are made to Arrowhead staff. We are sitting in the lower level for $95 per seat (not sure if tax is included) I also have tickets for the Chiefs v 49ers Wee 3 at a discounted price if you or anyone is interested!! As far as hotels, we are gonna start working on the party plans and accomodations next!!

Welcome to the Crowd!!:bananen_smilies046:

[Canada]

To everyone who will be attending the ChiefsCrowd Home Opener party!!

This invitation is open to anyone and everyone. I think we should put together one HUGE tailgate party. I have heard lots of people who are going to be at the game posting about tailgate party etc, does anyone want to get a big group together and have one big party? We did this a couple of years ago for the opener in 2008 and it was awesome. There were about 30 of us, but I think this year we could have a waaaay bigger group.

http://www.chiefscrowd.com/forums/images/imported/2010/05/35.jpg

We would need to rely on some help from locals who have grills that they would be willing to bring and cook. We can all throw in for some food and cook up a storm. The last party we had was one of the best times I have ever had at Arrowhead and I would love to do it again.

I am also looking into rooms at the Holiday Inn Sports Complex. I would like to get them reserved ASAP. I think they go for around $100 a night. The hotel is across the street from Arrowhead (literally walking distance) If you need a room for that weekend let me know. If I can get a rough idea of how many rooms we are going to book I can look into getting us a discounted rate on rooms. The hotel is pretty nice, decent restaurant downstairs. Cold beer in the bar. There is a pool, hot tub and sauna as well. Anyways, that is all I can think of right now so let me know if u need a room!! :bananen_smilies046:

2008 was a great party and I hope we can get a chance to make this one just as memorable. Monday Night Football in our brand new Arrowhead!! Lets make this a weekend to remember!! (Or forget, depending on how many Canadian beers you drink!!) :bananen_smilies046:

We're probably not going to need a room...however we are def in for the tailgate as a big group.
We'll be more than happy to bring whatever everyone thinks we need...(besides the obvious.... :canbeer: )

Was it hard to get everyone to the same area? Basically, tell me when/where to be and we'll be there!!

If there is interest, I am going to see about getting a group of parking passes together and once we get parked just send a mass text telling eveyone what section/lot we are in.

Yeah we are in. Let me know about the parking passes, I may pick one up. The quicker we can get together the better it will be. If there are people driving the best thing may be to meet up at say denny's just before, and then "convoy" over so we have multipule cars together and then we can make sure we have a large block of space. I don't know, but just an idea. I cant wait for the game. Its been three years since my last one,and that's three years too long!!!!

I could still really use some help getting rid of 13 more tickets to the 49ers game. The tickets all had to be sold in conjunction with our tix to the MNF game and I have 1 left. I could really use some help finding a home for them as I will be stuck with the bill if they are not sold by the ned of the week. (May 28th) Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I might be getting two more tickets for the 49ers game. I'll find out by the middle of next week. Are you going to be at the 49ers game?

I am really going to try my best. I am buying four tix for the game so that should be enough motivation to get my as$ there!! I can get tix as low as $35 or $40.

Please keep this thread used only for the Home opener.

I know there is another post here for the tailgating but I made a comment that a couple years ago, I found the best way to get a big group of people parked together is to meet off the stadium at a specific time, and then drive in a convoy to the stadium, that way we can all be through the gates at the same time and be able to block off a bunch of spaces. If anyone has a good idea of where to meet or what time I can attempt to organize this. I will be coming in from Hawaii, but I am familiar with KC and a good central location would make this easy. Also, if you have the ability to bring a grill or a canopy or something let me know. This seems pretty early but the better we can organize this the better (bigger) we can get with the most limited ammount of time wasted at the game trying to "find" everyone else. Any ideas or help would be great.

I am in for 4 tickets to the niner game. Just not sure how quick I can pay for them just yet.

[Canada]

Anyone? I have 6 tickets left and can go as low as $39 each!!

[Canada]

Who needs hotel rooms for either of these games? If u need one please let me know by Friday and I can reserve them. I am trying to get an idea of how many rooms we need so that I can try and get a discount. I will call them today and see if I can get a ballpark idea of prices. It will hopefully be at the Clarion Sports Complex across from Arrowhead. Please let me know ASAP, this is a great hotel because you can walk to the game. No lineups, quiKC walk to the best tailgate ever!!:bananen_smilies046:

[Canada]

I got some prices. Weekend rate is $149 and Sunday to Fri is $100. I am just waiting to hear back about a discounted price (hopefully) So Sun Mon Tues would be around $300 for the MNF game and I would be about $350 for the 49ers game. I will post discounted prices ASAP if we get them!!

[Canada]

$119 per night is the best price they can do. Let me know ASAP!!

I'm in with the Chiefs Crowd MNF group tickets, and fairly sure I'll be staying over the night of the game at the hotel if you can arrange the group deal Canada. I just need one room, Monday night.

I'll be at the 49er's game too, and plan on tailgating with those Chiefs Crowd friends attending, but I'll use the upper level Season Ticket seats for that game...due to financial feasibility. I'd love to sit among CC friends, but I can't afford to buy the tickets even at $39 when I have the upper level seat already.

I'll bring a variety of my homemade cookies, fudge, and peanut clusters to all Chiefs Crowd tailgating events...that's my standard, haha. I can additionally contribute bringing something else you may need too...just let me know! :)

As far as I know my Chiefs buddy Kelly will be here from Wisconsin for the MNF game. I assume he will schedule with his employer to be in KC that week working, & if so they'll provide him with a hotel room...he won't be staying at the same hotel as the rest of us. I don't think he'll be at the 49er's game, since it's so close to the MNF game, but I never know about him for sure, haha.

[Connie Jo]

PS: Love the pics!!! Chiefster's hair looks cute sticking out of his hat like that, hahaha. I recognize Canada, Ryan, Tammie, & Nate in the pic's...as I've tailgated with all, but not sure who everyone else is the one group pic, besides Chiefster, since he's been identified as a mod in the other pic, hahaha.

Well...Canada is organizing our Chiefs Crowd home opener tailgating event...MNF. As it is now, if enough interest is there...Canada is attempting to arrange a group discount hotel rate with the hotel directly East of Arrowhead Stadium. That hotel is within walking distance to Arrowhead, so many staying at that hotel won't be driving vehicles to Arrowhead.

A suggestion for those wanting to drive vehicles into Arrowhead, might be to meet up at that hotels parking lot.

You might already be aware of this, but the parking lot will fill quickly with tailgaters, especially with the home opener being MNF. It would be wise to have a 'convoy' of vehicles be prepared to enter Arrowhead as early as possible, when gates open. Once fans begin setting up their tents, grills, toss games, etc...it's next to impossible for even a single vehicle to drive through lanes between parking rows.

With this being the first MNF for the Chiefs in quite a while, the season opener as well...I'm assuming Arrowhead will open gates that morning, as they would if it was a Sunday game??? There likely will be fans wanting to make a day of it...tailgate most of the day, then attend the game that night.

[Connie Jo]

That's only because you've never tailgated with me:punk:



~Rutroh!~ It's a contest now! Who's more fun to tailgate with...Canada or Ryfo!? There's only one way for me to judge...you and Canada both have to be present at the same tailgating event...the 49er's game at Arrowhead! HA! :yahoo:


This is going to be a fun tailgate for sure. Especially with a 9:15 start time!

That would be 9:15 AM start time for our Chiefs Crowd annual tailgate gathering...correct?
:lol:


Hey I just found this site, and I am super stoked. I grew up in KC and currently work for the Army in Hawaii. I am going to be back for my 10 year class reunion the following week, and I am trying to get tickets for the MNF game. I haven't been able to get to a game for almost 3 years, (two of which I was in Iraq). I would like to get involved with your trip and make a day of it. Please let me know. I would need 2.

if it wasn't for the espn story I never would have found this site.

you guys rock

An ESPN story led you to Chiefs Crowd? Was Chiefs Crowd mentioned in an ESPN story?

Welcome to Chiefs Crowd! As my fav recording artist says, "it ain't braggin MFer if ya can back it up!" YES! Chiefs Crowd members do ROCK, in more ways than one! HA!

Are you a civilian contractor for the Army, or actually in the Army?

Seems to be a lack of interest so i am going to go ahead and let people deal with their accomodations on their own. There are a few cheap hotels so I am going to book one of those. Anyone who is interested can PM me and I will let you know where we are staying.

[Hayvern]

I was interested as we spoke about on Facebook, and now that it appears I am going to be able to make the game after all! WHOO HOOO, i am interested in getting rooms whereever you are.

I wanna stay where you are staying! I'm a bit uncomfortable with the thought of staying over at a hotel in Kansas City by myself without someone else I know who is staying at the same hotel. That said...how cheap?...clean cheap or roach hotel cheap?

Cheap enough that they will let us hang out on the night before the game, drink beer and throw beer cans off the second floor without calling the police.

Thats awesome you have a groupl of 16 coming for MNF!! The hotel you're speaking of I think is the same hotel Canada & others stayed at for the December 6th game against Denver last season. If so, that might be the same hotel many of us are staying at for the MNF game too, though not sure just yet.

Our friend & Chiefs Crowd member Ryfo is from Wisconsin too, but not sure he's coming for the MNF game, rather the 49er's later in September. I have a Chiefs buddy who's suppose to be coming for the MNF game, and he lives in Wisconsin, also driving in. Wisconsin appears to be well represented with Chiefs fans, haha.

[soccr00gk]

Thanks for the posts all,

There is a Royals game at 7:05 on the chiefs home opener. I am not sure how that will effect the gates opening, or whatever. Normally the gates open 4 hours before the game I believe. The main reason for that is it allows time to tailgate, but not so much time that the majority of the fans are too drunk. I know 4 hours is enough time to get real drunk, but that was the explaination I received when I asked about the time the stadium would open. As of now, they are trying to fight the logistical elements with having a Royals game that will start during the "tailgating" time for the chiefs and get over after the chiefs game starts. Don't be surprised if they do not allow anyone into the parking lot until 5:00.

The hotel would be a great place to meet once we find out what time they will let us in. I know in the past it pays off to be lined up at the gate at least 30 minutes earlier than when they open. It is a mad dash into the stadium once it opens. If the gates open at 5:00 then we maybe should meet at the hotel parking lot about 4:00 and take about 15 mins or so to meet and greet. I am looking forward to the game, and hanging out with some real football fans!!!

If you have any other questions or concerns please let me know.

Yeah, I thought about allowing too much time to tailgate & their concern of controlling fan alcohol influence after I posted, as well as it being a work day. Many won't be able to tailgate until after work. I was thinking of 'Monday' as I would a Sunday game day, as this will be the first time I've attended MNF at Arrowhead in all the years I've been a Chiefs fan. I'm not accustom to Monday's being a game day, or games being on a work day for most, nor beginning at night, haha.

In reality, regardless of when gates open it's not gonna stop drunkeness, possibly slow it down for some, or delay...but I've not been to a game yet where a large number of fans weren't intoxicated before, during, & after the game. Alcohol is to NFL games what peanut butter is to jelly, haha.

I'm not a MLB fan, so didn't realize the Royals have a game on the same night as the Chiefs Season Opener MNF. Opening the gates at 5:00 for MNF at Arrowhead will be during peak time for those who are entering the sports complex to attend the Royals 7:05 game, as peak time for traffic into any stadium event is within the two hours before start time.

With it being MNF I would imagine the majority of Chiefs fans will begin piling into Arrowhead as soon as they get off work and gates open...that's gonna put the majority of fans attending the Royals game & Chiefs MNF entering the sports complex/stadiums at the same time! Heck, it can easily take over an hour to enter Arrowhead if getting caught & stuck in traffic a couple hours before a game...and that's without Royals game traffic at the same time!

I dunno, but I would think under the circumstances of the Royals and Chiefs games being the same night, it being MNF for the Chiefs...they would be better off to open gates to enter Arrowhead early in the afternoon, regardless of the tailgate-alcohol time factor, and it being a work day. Many may have the option to leave work early, or take off for a sick day, whatever. Either that or re-schedule the Royals game, HA!

[Canada]

I have been looking at some different accomodations that will hopefully suit everyones needs. I think the best choice as far as proximity to the stadium, price, and general cleanliness is going to be the Quality Inn on Noland Rd. It is two exits down the highway from the stadium.

QUALITY INN & SUITES - Independence MO 4200 South Noland Rd. 64055 Missouri (http://www.hotelplanner.com/Hotels/93726/Reservations-Quality-Inn-Suites-Independence-4200-South-Noland-Rd-64055)

I asked what rooms were were going to be based on people staying Sat, Sun and Mon night Sept 11-14. She gave me the following prices

King Bed - $77.99 $72.99 and $72.99
2 Queen - $82.99 $77.99 and $72.99

These prices include breakfast each morning. There is a flat screen TV and fridge in every room and a pool. She said they are OK with partying as long as it is kept respectful. They will allow BBQs and beer in the parking lot during the day. There are also several restaurants in the area and Bandanas BBQ is across the parking lot from the hotel.

It will be interesting to see how many red jerseys are at the Royals game that are not Cardinals fans! I have talked to someone on this board that is interested in help cook, I can see if he can post on here. I am excited about meeting you guys on here and having a blast at the game. I assume more detailed meeting arrangements will be made as the time gets closer. Can you believe training camp starts in a little more than a month?

I have to discuss season tickets with my wife first Buffman. I sent her and email with the details you gave me, and I got no response.... In the end, I will get my way. However, if I don't end up getting my way, how much just for tickets for the home opener, in said sections that I am looking at season tix for.

As Buffman said, I have no problems helping with the food. I used the Chiefs games as ways to work on my BBQ, Practicing every week was great. I unfortunately got dragged into BBQ for large parties and charities, so I will be glad to help friends. I also have a tent, and two 6 foot long folding tables, and maybe a portable outhouse (TENT)....

I just have to get my tickets back from when I was a season ticket holder. Buffman is trying to hook me up with seats just accross the ailse from my old tix... It all depends on my wife.

With the Royals playing at 2:10, will they leave the gates open all day for Chiefs fan to get their tailgate on? I doubt they would have time to clear everybody out after the baseball game. Thoughts, or does anybody know?????:yahoo: :bananen_smilies046: :chiefs: :punk:

[buffman316]

The gates will be open for the Chiefs fans too because I think they are hoping to see a seas of red at the Royals game. I even heard talk of a combo package. When I get to Arrowhead tonight I will get all of the details for you.

[pbatrucker]

Well, if they are going to leave the gates open that early, we need to make a day of it to get a good spot. Let's hear some input from everyone.

Im going to check into my hotel room early and make it over at some point early afternoon is my best guess~

Royals game is at 2:10? There was another thread discussing this issue, and someone said the Royals game was like at 7:10...maybe they looked at the time wrong, or I did, haha. Do you think it's going to create a fricken Interstate mess with both teams having games, even with the Royals in the afternoon...and the Chiefs is a MNF which creats even more interest???

I said in the other thread I felt the Chiefs should open gates early, making an exception for MNF significance...since it's been a while we've had MNF, the season opener as well! Allow fans to celebrate making a day out of it if they choose, it's also been a while since we've had much to celebrate about, hahaha. However, someone brought up the valid point that opening gates early encourages drinking too early, etc..

MNF ENcourages drinking early!! I already know what im having for breakfast!!:canbeer:

Actually, I 'think' there was a time you could buy a pass that allowed parking lot entrance to camp out the weekend of a Sunday game. It was for those with RV's I think, rather than on foot, lol.

Well, that's only cause you didn't use your charm and ask permission first, LOL. I tend to think this may be one of those situations where don't ask (questions) first, just do it...is a bad thing, LMAO!

Are you talking about last December? Was this Saturday night, before the Sunday game...or later after the game and hotel party, lol.

[Canada]

It was the friday night before the 2nd game. TROUble or no trouble, peacefully falling asleep in the parking lot at Arrowhead was totally worth it!!

My paramedic badge usually gets me out of a fair bit of trouble!!

Oh, the weekend after the Donkey's game...I remember now you were staying for 10 days, going to the game the Sunday after. Why were you in the parking lot Friday night...just cause? LOL

Awwwww, I'm not sure if I should giggle or tear up! You're right, it is awesome to sit back and look at...I get goosebumps!

I am dead set on making this function. My wife did provide a very valid argument to me over the weekend to poo poo my season tickets.

Sorry about the Season Tickets, but it's admirable of you to say your wifes argument was valid. There's a time and place, and your time for Season Tickets will come. Heck, this season is the first I've ever had Season Tickets in all my years as a Chiefs fan...valid reasons prevented it previous seasons.

LOL, We had season tickets before our boys were born. The oldest start kindergarden this year which frees up our budget a little so I was trying to get my season tickets back. She wants something else first, which does benefit me as well. I haven't lost the fight completely, but realistically, the want VS need factor was slapped in my face.

I just wanted my tickets back now, before the band wagoners get their hands on them and I am stuck up in nose bleed.

[Seek]

I second Canadas nomination!

I am working out some details with Canada. We will keep you posted.

[bbacker51]

Can you imagine the smoke coming from all the people smoking ribs, chicken, pork, shrimp and any other meat known to mankind......if it is open early enough??????:yahoo: I hope they will make an exception to the rule this time:drunkhb: :beat_DeadHorse:

Oh, haha. Well, hopefully it will work out. I'm not sure, but think mine may be close to nosebleed, lol. It's okay though, cause it's still a life first for me, and much of the game is about the environment, tailgating, friends, atmosphere, all that jazz, haha.

I don't think I'll ever be able to afford LL ST's. The upper level package was a great buy @ $250, and included the memorial brick in the new circular walkway...which allowed me the opportunity to become a part of Arrowhead permanently. Here's what I had my memorial brick inscribed with:

The Chiefs and Royals are looking at a combo package and the gates will be open early simply because there is no way to turn people away before the Royals game. The best scenario would be to go to the Royals game, then tailgate for the Chiefs. Since this Monday night game is the late one, some "rookies" will be passed out in the parking lot in the first quarter. If you party early, it would be great to take a nap in the Royal's Hyvee seats!

[Connie Jo]

Oh, and last I heard y'all were talking about pulled pork, ribs, etc.. I can make and bring my homemade potato salad to go along with that, as well as my baked beans...just let me know if that's okay. I'll also bring my standard...cookies & fudge.

:lol: @ "rookies"

That's awesome they're gonna open gates early! It allows those who are able to make a day of it celebrating! Unless some unforeseen change occurs...I will be one of those taking advantage of gates opening early! YEEHAW!

[bbacker51]

:yahoo: That is going to be a great day for KC Sports Teams. Hopefully they'll pitch Greinke!!!!!! Can't wait to get there, drink, drink, drink watch some baseball, drink, BBQ/smoke some grub (while drinking) Watch the Chiefs win on Monday night, Drink and then drink. After that I'll probably go to bed. :toast2: :drunkhb: :D :bananen_smilies046: :punk:

[bbacker51]

If anybody has any more info on this, could you please let me know where to find it......HOLLA!:sFl_america2:

[Canada]

I just spoke with the group salses manager from the stadium and she informed me that there will be no tailgating until approx 3 hours before the MNF game. IF this turns out to be true, we will be staying at the quality inn on Noland rd and they said we can bbq in the parking lot so we can start the tailgate there and move to Arrowhead once they open the gates. Just an idea. I am hoping to buy royals tix and then dare them to get me outta the parking lot!!:sFl_canada2:

[bbacker51]

The Royals game will be done at say 5:30ish maybe 6. How do they plan on kicking everybody out?????? My guess is they won't, but they also won't promote tailgating all day.....which is too bad. I don't think its possible to clear a parking lot in 1 hour.

No my seats were in upper level. They were just in the thrid row. Basically Club level with no overhang.

You get way up there, and you start debating on peeing in a cup just so you don't have to walk the stairs.

[Canada]

I have no idea how they plan on donig it, but I have already bought tix for the Royals game so I can get in the parking lot, and I plan on being too drunk to drive so I wont be able to leave the parking lot even if I wanted to!!

UGH! Party poopers! Stinks they won't open gates earlier! It makes no feasible sense to me at all, & people are either gonna drink early or not, they can't control that aspect. They've already lost control of drinking...cause many will be drinking at the Royals game!

KISS! 'Keep It Simple Stupid!' They're creating more problems for themselves, & traffic control...not allowing people in early. If the Royals game is over around 6 ish, Chiefs gates open at 3 hrs before, that's 5 PM...that's only an hour difference...traffic on the Interstates & Blue Ridge are gonna be a nightmare! It's putting more than normal trying to enter/leave both stadiums during the same time periods.


Canada...since you bought Royals tickets are we tailgating beforehand at the hotel parking lot? What is the plan now? I don't plan on buying Royals tickets and going to the Royals game first. I'd rather tailgate...not a big MLB fan, haha.

[Connie Jo]

Ummmm...wonder what their brilliant plan is at Arrowhead if the Royals game by some remote chance goes into a 10th inning!!!

I only bought my tix in case you need them to get into the parking lot. I could care less about the game!! I paid $7 per ticket and I have one for u if we do need them to get in!! :bananen_smilies046:

Yeah, I've been nosebleed before, and the stairs are scary steep going down, especially if they're wet with lots of beer being spilled on them!...or beer in ya! HA!

Only $7 ???? Heck, I had no idea what tickets cost to a Royals game, but assumed they were around the same as a Chiefs game ticket...apparently my assumption was WAY WRONG! LOL $7...that's well worth spending to be in the parking lot early! Hold on to one for me, & I'll give ya $7 when I see ya! Thanks! :D

It won't be possible to clear traffic out of the connecting Royals stadium in one hour. If gates open 3 hrs before...I think MNF is 8 CST...puts gates opening at 5 PM...BAD...that's during 4-6 peak rush hour traffic on I-70. Royals game over around 6 ish is the worst timing possible too...as many who plan on attending MNF will begin heading to the stadium as soon as possible after they get off work! Between 4-6 PM is major rush hours!
I-70 can be bumper to bumper from downtown to well past the stadiums just with people getting off work...no stadium factor. I-435 & I-70 connect is jambed up during rush hours traffic too. Many people take both to get to the sports complex...Interstate backs up without a rush hour factor on Sundays. Throw in the MNF traffic factor...Royals game traffic exiting the stadium parking...rush hour work traffic...what a mess that's gonna be on I-70 & 435!

[bbacker51]

I don't think they have a choice........open the gates early!!!!!!!!

[bbacker51]

Like I said before, if anybody ever hears something concrete about this please let me know. There will be a group of 8-10 of us, so hotel reservations, royals tix will be very important. The websites don't have anything up yet.

[kckidd8870]

The Royals schedule say 7:10 on 9/13/2010
I still hope they do something to let use in early.Us KC fans are chomping at the bit.Im ready for the Bolts to go down Baby.

If you're needing hotel reservations I'd make them asap if you want as close as possible to Arrowhead. Thanks to our friend Canada...some of us working together to organize our annual Chiefs Crowd tailgating get together, have already booked as a small group at the Quality Inn on Noland Rd, East of the Sports Complex. I've copied/pasted the info he posted a while back below...if you're interested in that hotel.

Keep in mind, this is an NFL MNF game, there will be major sports media coming in from all over the globe to cover highlights. They'll be booking rooms close to the stadium too, if they've not already.

Canada also posted he bought Royals tickets for $7.00...well worth that to gain access to the parking lots early, hoping to set up Chiefs Crowd tailgating early of course, haha. You might want to check now & then for updated info in the thread stickied related to our annual CC tailgating event. :)

[Connie Jo]

Here's the hotel info I mentioned in the previous post that Canada posted:

I have been looking at some different accomodations that will hopefully suit everyones needs. I think the best choice as far as proximity to the stadium, price, and general cleanliness is going to be the Quality Inn on Noland Rd. It is two exits down the highway from the stadium.

QUALITY INN & SUITES - Independence MO 4200 South Noland Rd. 64055 Missouri (http://www.hotelplanner.com/Hotels/93726/Reservations-Quality-Inn-Suites-Independence-4200-South-Noland-Rd-64055)

I asked what rooms were were going to be based on people staying Sat, Sun and Mon night Sept 11-14. She gave me the following prices

King Bed - $77.99 $72.99 and $72.99
2 Queen - $82.99 $77.99 and $72.99

These prices include breakfast each morning. There is a flat screen TV and fridge in every room and a pool. She said they are OK with partying as long as it is kept respectful. They will allow BBQs and beer in the parking lot during the day. There are also several restaurants in the area and Bandanas BBQ is across the parking lot from the hotel.

The Royals have changed the time of the game! It is now at 2 in the afternoon.

[bbacker51]

It may be easier for them to sell all day parking passes (which won't be cheap). That way anybody with a pass in their window will be allowed to stay after the Royals win.

[Connie Jo]

Well, that explains why I was initially confused, since I thought I had read a few weeks ago the Royals game was at 7:10, but then read more recently it was at 2:00. Whew! Not losing my mind, lol

Just to let folks know; I am merging this thread with Canada's thread located as a stickie in the "Locker Room".
