Are Chiefs home games awesome? My wife's been wanting to go but tickets are like $300 each for anything decent + the gas to drive there + the hotel & food, etc. Just wondering if the experience would be worth the $$$.
I've not been to any games outside of Arrowhead to compare, but Chiefs games are quite the event if you fully participate in the pregame and make a day of it. I know numerous people that have went to road games and thought the experience was lackluster. A work buddy that went to a Cincinatti game in the early 2000s and he was dumbfounded by how bad it sucked. No tailgating, the PA announcer sucked, the music they played sucked, the crowd didn't know when to be loud, or when to be quiet. Just overall not a fun vibe. Over 20 years ago, so maybe that's changed.
Close games at Arrowhead are absolutely electric, and it's not a hostile place if your wearing the away team's jersey.
