Paddy’s Pilgrimage And The AA Meetup

I became a Chiefs fan for the same reason. My dad was a big 49ers fan and I absolutely love Montana. Got invited to make the trek down from North Dakota but school and work got in the way. I get to bartend that night and I think I will be offering free drinks every time the Chiefs score to anyone who can tell me a player on the team. Seems fair. That way I can probably get the whole bar to cheer for KC. The one and only time I have been to Arrowhead was in 2000 when they played a MNF against the Seahawks. Great back and forth game and a great win for KC. We had end zone seats and I got to see Gonzalez dunk the football on the goal posts in our end, still sends chills up my spine. Have a great time and get there really early. Won't be much else going on in KC since the town will all be at the game around noon (probably earlier). Can't wait to see the pics.

I don't drink, but I'm going to try and make it by. This will be my first game at Arrowhead as well.

You had to pick the one weekend I was out of town? I could of made you with KC's Irish Mafia had I known sooner. Then again, I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. Let me know if/when you nake it back. Couple of suggestions for yuze - Kelly's in Westport in tthe morning & eat at the orig Bryant's at least once.

Wow! Patrick I never would have believed that you had never set foot in Arrowhead. As a KC expat I welcome you to our hallowed Chief's ground. I was a kid when the Chiefs arrived from Texas and played their 1st games in the old municipal stadium. I worked as a teenager during the summer months on the sports complex that houses Arrowhead. I have seen many games there, good ones and not so good ones, but it's always a celebration to attend a Chief's home game. Just make sure you leave room for some "Arrowhead tailgate BBQ" nothing better, especially when the Chief's win.

Awesome Pat: Have a beer for me. I think Merlin (moderator) and I will be doing a live game chat. Make sure Merlin is set to go with that before you leave. I have no idea how to do it. I use a 3g card lap top too my connection is not that great.

I will be making the treck East from Denver this weekend too. Tickets in hand and Hotel reservations made. What an awesome way to start the season. We wil be leaving Saturday afternoon and don't know exactly when we'll land in KC but we'll be there for the Monday night game!! (and A's vs. Royals)

Alrigt Paddy I am a California product that comes from a non-football family but relate to your story because I too was drawn to the Chiefs at the same time. This was during my freshman year of high school and I had decided to play football for my high school team. Anyhow I got to make my first trip to Arrowhead for the season opener against the Jets the last year of Vermiel's tenure with the Chiefs and Herms last with the Jets. We won that game against the Jets here's hoping for a great story for you to tell as mine was. I love the Chiefs and connot wait until I get to return to another game. Gooooooooooo Chiefs

I'd be down to drink some beers and kick it with you sunday afternoon.

Sooooo jealous! Have a blast out there Paddy!

I should be able to make it sunday PA. I work sunday morning till 2 but I could head there after work.

Safe trip, and have a blast! Last time I was there was the Thanksgiving game, I expect the crowd to be as insane this time around. Enjoy your time and take lots of pics. See ya at the PourHouse sometime this season.

Thanks guys. Can anyone make it down to Power and Light Sunday afternoon? It will be real informal. Just beers, football and Chiefs talk.

What a GREAT time to see your first game at Arrowhead. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed my season tickets for 20 years!! Get there early and take in all of the sights.

You should consider watching the games at Tower Tavern in Martini Corner. Great Spot!
