A couple of things about yesterday - and a HUGE Thank You to ALL of you!
 

Hello!

I've been around for quite a few years, but nobody here really knows me. When I post - it's not semi often, and most of the time, nobody engages in conversation because I don't post often enough. Needless to say, I am here because I love the Chiefs. When I was younger, my mother had club level seasons - and that really ignited the passion. However, since then - I have not been to many games. I was at the 'decibel' game against the Pats, I was at a TNF game against the Broncos a couple of years ago - and that's the last two.

I told the wife how awesome it would be to attend the Championship game, but realistically - I can't afford it. However - I always watch - and I always scream at my TV - a trait I inherited from my mother.

This past week, I entered the drawing for the AFCCG - and was beyond surprised when I ended up winning two seats to it. Thank you all. I immediately had to run out to stores to find "more" cold weather gear, I had to find a baby-sitter as there was no way my 3-year old was going, and I had to prepare myself for the biggest game I'd ever have the chance to attend (If I can't afford a AFCCG, then there is no way I can afford the SB!).

Because it had been so long, we didn't know anyone - and by the time we got to the stadium, my wife and I opted to have a couple of sandwiches in the car and then head in. I left to head in about 2 hours early because I recalled security being a nightmare, but we entered Gate D and there wasn't a single person in line.....

I want to thank all of Chiefsplanet for this opportunity and especially DaFace for running the contest. Getting to meet another CP'er was an amazing experience (I didn't get to meet Tamba though). It'll certainly be something my wife and I won't soon forget and it would not have been possible without all of you.

From the bottom of my heart - thank you all.

Now for some photos!

We had to park about as far away as we could from the stadium, you could barely see it from here!

Here are some picturesque views of the parking lot.

Here's a few views from our seats. I was quite impressed to be honest. You could see the field very good, and since the angle is quite steep, even a taller guy in front of me made it very easy to see.

Sweet. Most of the guys here have avatars of scantily clad woman and I figured they could never match up to a Titan. But you're The God of Thunder and have a kickass avatar so I knew when I saw you'd won that you'd bring us a victory.

Glad you got to enjoy the amazingness of yesterday. Thanks for the pictures!

Glad that you had a good time. I have to admit I'm jelly

Very cool, how's your voice today?

Whoa. The confetti looked like a flame.

FLAME OF THE WEST

Awesome pics man thanks for sharing. Must’ve been something special to have been there.

Amazing pics bro, I’m sure it was an overwhelming experience... color me quite jelly :thumb:

This got me damn near as teared up as the win.

Thanks for sharing. I'm proud of the way this COMMUNITY came together to make this happen.

Best $25 I’ve ever spent. I’m glad that you got the chance to go witness history in person.

Congratulations!



Who are you again? Do you really live in LA? STFU n00b?



Just kidding, glad you won and had a good time, whoever you are.

Thanks for posting, and glad you had a great time. Odd to hear about Tambaberry. What's the story there?

Hope he's just antisocial. :)

Congrats! And thanks for bringing home a win!

This is what it's all about, it really is. We fight, we bitch, we whine, but in the end we're all Chiefs fans and I couldn't be happier to hear your story.

And a super virtual high-five for everybody who helped to make it happen. Karma owes you all...

I do have to make a comment!

At 1:51 left in the first half. TEN punted to us. We had decent field position and I told Superchief "Not terrible, we can do it with the time!" - and then there was a foul that moved the ball back. I sold SuperChief - "Well crap....." and he looked at me and said.....

"Don't worry, Mahomes it about to do something special" - and well, you all saw that TD run.

Thank you for sharing. Truly awesome for DaFace to wrangle this together; even cooler that you guys made it happen. I love this place.

Hear, hear! Money well spent.

Great pics. Thanks for sharing. Thanks for representing CP!

So glad you made the game and had a blast. Thanks for sharing your experience, I'm surprised no one has called for wife pics.

This was an INCREDIBLE experience, and I can't thank the CP faithful enough for this opportunity. The game was cold as ice, but it truly warmed my spirits seeing CHunt, Andy, and Patty hoisting the trophy with Lamar's name.

Meeting God of Thunder and his wife was a great experience as well. I've never met a CPer in person, so this was a great opportunity to do that. We had awesome conversation all game, and we cheered/clapped our asses off until we could no longer do as such. I'd like to think we did you all proud.

I'm glad you were able to enjoy the experience.

Ditto, what a game!

AWESOME!

Ditto. Thanks for sharing your experiences. I wonder what happened to TambaBerry?

I checked in with him, and he says he was there. I'm guessing he was just more into enjoying it than meeting other CPers. To each his own.

Hopefully this works, but yes I was there. Were the CPers from the aisle over?

It was one of the best experiences of my life, absolutely incredible to be there and just sit afterwards and soak it in while waiting for people to exit. Me and my buddy who I took both lost our voices yesterday. Gave it my all during the game.

Just one of a myriad of reasons why this place kicks ass.

Based on the guy in the Huskers coat, I think they were to your right. Your seats were 11-16.

We were to your right, homie! The person in seat 12 sat next to my brother, who was in seat 13. I was in 14, and God of Thunder and his wife we in 15-16. Sorry we didn't connect!

We need to consider putting out CP swag again. Make it easier to find each other on game days. I know I would be in for a hat for sure.

Not opposed to it if anyone wants to try and run with it. Just not my forte.

i didnt introduce myself but i definitely talked to the people to my right, so that should count haha. Kind of a funny story this guy came up to me about 30 minutes before the game claiming we were sitting in their seats and we were looking at it like nope i know im in the right seat. and then he finally showed me his phone tickets and he was in the wrong section. I was like damn somehow daface bought duplicate tickets and they worked for both of us

Ha, glad I didn't screw it up!

I'll check with the company that produced the last batches and see if they still have the art.

I have a couple of high res logos, but they're just JPGs. Let me know if it'd be helpful to send along, though.

I'm happy you got to go, and that Chiefsplanet helped provide a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Or we could all get the CP logo tattooed on our foreheads...

Looks like an awesome experience!

I wonder if Phobia still has the color separations/designs for the old Chiefsplanet T-shirts and Caps?

If you make a Fisty shirt, I'm in. You know a guy is from CP, if he's wearing a Fisty shirt!
