We had a BLAST yesterday at Arrowhead, even though the Chiefs lost...there were by far more positives for me with attending the game beyond winning or losing. Such as tailgating and creating memories with awesome Chiefs friends, witnessing DT's jersey #58 be retired officially, and so on. Most games come & go, but moments like those mentioned above are the truely priceless moments at Arrowhead. :)
I enjoyed seeing & tailgating with YZILLA again, and meeting his adorable sons this time round. They have YZILLA's wonderful & outgoing personality! No doubt are just as diehard Chiefs fans as their dad too! YAY!!
It was awesome meeting Tammietailgator & her hubby! She's as pretty and as sweet as she can be. It's nice to converse with someone who understands seizure disorders in dogs too, such as Tammie does...and of which my Springer Spaniel 'Lily' suffers from. I think Tammie and I have much in common!
Canada...well, hahaha...he's one of those people that from the first minute you meet him, it's as if you've known him all your life. Canada is awesome, and his sense of humor of course is priceless. It was a pleasure to meet him in person and party with him and his Canadian friends. I had so much fun! I wish I could attend the Buffalo game this coming Sunday...to tailgate again, since Canada may not be back till next year...& I already know I'm gonna miss seeing him!
However, Christmas for the grandkids is a priority over gas & another Chiefs game ticket for grandma, haha.
My friend Kelly from Wisconsin had a great time too, and told me that everyone from Chiefs Crowd we tailgated with are awesome people. He'd tailgate every home game too if he could, haha. He's actually been a member of Chiefs Crowd for a couple yrs., but has yet to participate. Maybe someday he'll not be shy about posting, I can hope anyway, hahaha.
I forgot to take my camera inside the stadium, so no game pics. However, I do have these from tailgating below. We all went back to Canada's hotel room after the game, partied some more. Met even more people there who were really cool & fun too. I didn't want to leave as early as I did, but the weather turned bad & I had a 1 1/2 hr drive home. It began snowing heavy 1/2 hr into my drive, and the remaining hour turned into 2!! The visibility was poor & slowed most everyone down.
I was relieved to get home, as driving in heavy snow falling and darkness on two lane country hwys isn't fun at all, haha. I love snow falling as long as I'm inside all snuggled up on the sofa, not in a drivers seat, hahaha.
Chiefs Crowd members are simply the best of the best...and I'm honored to be included...enough said! YEEHAW!

Awesome pictures Connie!!! It was so great meeting you and I cannot wait to tailgate again!
OH!!!! And Connie did not mention her awesome cookies! ;)
I had so much fun I don't even know where to start either ! Another great meamory from Arrowhead! Im gonna get my pics up right now ! By the way I had about 300 of my 400 mile trip in the snow/sleet , black ice , blowing snow . It was crazy my 6 hour drive turned into about a 7.5 to 8 hour drive.![]()
LOL
I have a great memory from yesterday relating to my cookies too, hahahaha. When I took a platter full over to the fans standing in the outhouse line, hahaha...they were very appreciative and fun!
I'm PMing you the name of Lily's medicine now, almost forgot till I saw your post Tammie!
I'm so happy to have met such great people & friends at Chiefs Crowd I can tailgate with! I should've searched for & found this website sooner, but at least I found it while I still have enough years left to tailgate, haha...& I look forward to more tailgating too!!! YEEHAW!
It's a good thing I stopped beer drinking in the 3rd Quarter though, haha...otherwise, I'd not been able to drive home safely, or at all! My dogs were grateful I didn't forget to come home & let them in the house...it was COLD outside!

Thanks for letting me warm up in your truck too Connie!
Can't wait to see the pics Yzilla! Your kids are awesome too!
I thought about you off & on all day with your drive, knowing it was much longer than mine, and in the same direction the snow was coming from! I figured all was well, or we'd heard different. I prayed for you to have a safe trip home!
Yeah, my drive ended up 2 1/2 hrs instead of 1 1/2, but that was nothing by comparison to knowing what you had! Very happy you & the boys are home safe & sound!
Your boys are awesome, and so much fun...just like their dad, hahaha.

You guys have memories of Sunday? I can't remember sh!t!! lol Had a great time with you all and can't wait until next Sunday. If you are gettin down on the Chiefs, come to Arrowhead and tailgate, hang with the fans and party. You will rejuvinate your love of the Chiefs and it will remind you of why we all love this team!!
The only reason a beer sweats around Canada is because he's decided it will be the next beer he drinks.
Looks like a great time with good people!!
I so should have been there!Next season I
well better be there. My boss already said I could have the time off. Connie, get your buddy to post on the Crowd. Now about all the nice things you said about the Crowd Members that attended, I agree, the are great, well Canada is a jerk.
