KC Chiefs among Indianapolis Colts quick sell-outs for 2022 season

The Indianapolis Colts have announced that two games on their schedule have already sold out including their Week 3 contest against the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Kansas Chiefs are getting used to the week-by-week attention they receive from the opposing team in the NFL, knowing that a potential victory over Patrick Mahomes and company is akin to a Super Bowl victory for most. It’s the reason why most teams reach deep and give the Chiefs everything they can during the regular season.

Fan bases are clued into this as well, knowing how exciting it can be to watch a team like the Chiefs and they want to be there to witness a potential upset. It’s also true that the star power of the Chiefs is great these days with Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and others at the team’s core.

Coming into the 2022 NFL season, the Chiefs are going to be a major draw for any team, then, and the Indianapolis Colts are already reaping the rewards for having them on the schedule. The team’s home opener will be against the Chiefs in Week 3 of the ’22 season and Indianapolis’ PR team just announced that two games on the home slate for the coming year have already sold out, including their contest against the Chiefs.

The Chiefs will be favored in this game, as they should, but no one should discount the Colts ahead of time knowing just how problematic they’ve proven to be since Andy Reid arrived. The two teams haven’t played since 2019, but Indy has won 3 of 5 total games since Andy Reid first joined the Chiefs and K.C. is 1-1 in the postseason in that same span.

In addition to the game against the Chiefs, the Colts’ game against the Pittsburgh Steelers has also sold out—a Monday Night Football contest in late November.
