The new 60-65k stadiums are way smoother for entry, but they were built in a different era (and the ticket prices reflect the amenities).

The bottom line is that 60 min prior to kick, you have to decide would you rather drink cheap beer in the lot and probably miss the pre-game stuff, or get in early and pay big $$$ for beers.

I don't purchase a goddamned thing when I enter the stadium. THIS IS NOT THE FANS FAULT.

I'm not saying it's anyone's fault. It is what it is. But the choice that I laid out is the reality.

We got in line super early and had no problems. Was in the stadium by 415.

But I agree, getting in line an hour before kick off is more than reasonable. You should expect to be able to get in to get your seat in that timeframe.

It's fine man. With everything that happened last night. This is the only thing I'm truly upset about.

Or drink no beer at all? You’re acting as if that’s the primary goal here by only including those two choices.

I stopped drinking over a decade ago, and I get there early, so it's not a problem for me.

For the average fan at Camerohead though, that's a very realistic choice......

Take out the drinking part, and the choice remains the same. Build in enough time to get in early, or risk missing pre-game. I get there on time, so I don't really care.

Four beers all day. Last beer two hours before kickoff. Stop it.

Not every one is there to be drunk.

I'm not the one crying and blaming others. I don't care if you miss the pre-game or how much or little you drink.

If you can't build in enough time to get into your seats for a 5:40 kick, I don't know what to tell you.

Crazy enough, I saw more sober fans at Arrowhead than normal. It was as if the fans knew they had to be coherent enough to be an integral part of the game last night..........unfortunately, the D and DC were Drunk.

It's been a problem for at least two years.

Just because people should budget over an hour to get to their seats doesn't mean that's the way it should be. The Chiefs need to fix this problem. All of it, from getting into the parking lot to getting into the stadium to getting out of the parking lot.

The whole experience sucks.

They just spent a couple hundred million or three renovating the ****ing place 8 years ago.
