Sometimes I stop by the library on my lunch break at work. Yesterday I happened to see a children’s book about the history of my beloved Kansas City Chiefs laying out.
“Well, that’s...
The 1969 Kansas City Chiefs: in my humble opinion, the best Super Bowl team ever. Many people assume that the Kansas City Chiefs only played in Arrowhead, which is not true, of course.
Municipal Stadium...
Intangibles. NFL scouts know exactly what it means, but few– if any– can describe it. Though it’s one of the least understood NFL rating factors, it is universally considered one...
Arrowhead Anxiety! Change in the Chiefs front office! Former employees express displeasure at the organization! Thirty year employees let go!
It’s news nobody including your Arrowhead Adventurer...
On December 15, 2008. Carl Peterson was handed his walking papers after a ten year career at the helm of the Kansas City Chiefs. An exciting day it was for your Arrowhead Adventurer. Earlier, my beloved...
And more..
Another season gone, and no Super Bowl appearance for my beloved Kansas City Chiefs!
Oh well, no big...
In my forty eight years on earth, I’ve learned many lessons. None more important than this.
Whatever...
This is a mulit-part series (unless I get bored with myself which is likely).
Anyway, sometimes when...

I had another great day at Arrowhead last Sunday!
Everything was fabulous but the football.
What disturbs...

Well gang, for a year I have been posting that the 2010 Monday night game was one of the best that I had witnessed at Arrowhead. The 2011 Monday night game proved me wrong!
As I sat down for dinner in...
Aaaah it’s Raiders week. Considered one of the leagues most bitter rivalries, the Chiefs and Raiders have been in the same division since the AFL was established in 1960.
The Chiefs lead the series...
They say you don’t know what you have until you don’t have it anymore. True that is, I told myself as I sat in the upper deck at Lucas Oil Stadium last Sunday. The place is an absolute engineering...
Arrowhead is a wonderful place. A sea of angry red seats, still one of the largest stadiums in the NFL, and certainly the loudest. The experiences it delivers never ceases to surprise your Arrowhead Adventurer.
I’ve...
When it comes to the Arrowhead Experience, I know more than most I guess. I’ve been going to the damn place for years. Pavlov’s dog knew better than to drink from the bowl that gave him that painful...
By the end of 2008, the future of the Kansas City Chiefs looked like hell from my seats in the upper sections. Carl Peterson was booed off the field. We had no quarterbacks that could stay in the game,...
Well sir….I’m sure I am not the only Chiefs fan who felt stinging disappointment on the ride home from Arrowhead Sunday night. Lyle Graverson filled us in on his disappointments. Hindsight...
The Chiefs home opener is Sunday, Sept. 11 at 12 pm Central Time. Your Arrowhead Adventurer will be casually watching a pot of chili slow cook in his gas-powered crock pot on the parking lot and enjoying...
Brian Waters, a key element of the Kansas City Chiefs offense for eleven years. A five time Pro Bowler, Brian was a key reason the Chiefs went 13-3 in 2003.
As recipient of the 2009 Walter Payton Man...
