I never imagined I'd be back here with another ****SAVE OUR CHIEFS*** thread...
but here we are. This is a long post and there is no getting around that.

Most of you probably know about SOC but it's been 12 years and 3 Super Bowls since then and there has probably been an influx of new users/fans that don't have any idea so I'm gonna briefly recap what happened just so they can keep up with the rest of this post. 12 years ago the people on this forum were the central supporters of one of the most effective fan rebellions against their team, ever. CP trolled on Social Media, trolled on Craigslist, made videos, came together and flew banners, and organized "Blackout Arrowhead" which was so visually impactful that Marv Albert and Rich Gannon mentioned us on air during a game. It was a glorious time in CP history where we literally turned chicken shit into chicken salad.

Why am I back here talking about this? Well, some wild stuff happened, other things may be happening, and something for sure is happening. I'll elaborate.

Wild Stuff Happened:

MartyMac (SOC & part time CP'er) sent me a message a few months ago to let me know that someone, who very much wanted to remain anonymous (Marty is the only guy who knows who the person is and he isn't telling), wanted to express gratitude for what we did in 2012 with SOC. He asked for ring sizes. A few months later... this shows up. One for each of us.





It is mind blowing to think that the effort put forth by this community into a plan I brought to you played a part in a butterfly effect of events where our team has now won 3 Super Bowls, has become a dynasty, and we literally have the best QB in football history. I wanted to reach out and thank everyone here who donated money/time/voice in support of SOC. Without you none of this happens. I honestly and truthfully believe that if we don't revolt... nothing changes and Pioli would have returned in 2013. WE (CP/SOC) did that.

Wild Stuff *MAY* Be Happening:

I don't have many details yet but there is, apparently, interest in a 30 for 30 style documentary based on the events of the 2012 fan revolt in KC with Bob Fescoe attached. All of this is in it's earliest of stages and no clue if it will actually happen or not but if it does happen... CP will likely play a prominent role in the whole thing. Some may be asked to participate via interviews if they wish to.

What is *ACUTALLY* Happening:

An impromptu CP/SOC get together. This Saturday at Chapelle's at 7PM. The back room is reserved. MartyMac wants to do a "ring presentation" for the fellas involved in SOC but more than anything... we just want to hang out for a while. We never really got to do that as a group since, at the time, we were spread all over the US. Since CP was the cradle of SOC we figured we would extend the invitation to those of you who might be interested in meeting/hanging out/celebrating the success of the Chiefs since Pioli was fired.

To be clear... your tab is your own. LOL

SOC should be required reading for new CP members.

Appreciate how bad it was back then and what it took to get here. I joined in 2013 and was immediately taught the ways.

I saw your post on twitter about this. Its pretty incredible, it was a wild time indeed.

I remember the original idea was to raise enough money to fly 1 banner over Arrowhead for 1 game and in no time we had enough for multiple banners and games and it just blew up from there.

Wasn't the original goal just $750 or something like that?

This is my go-to when people ask me if im a bandwagon fan.

Matter of fact, someone asked me that again the other day.

People like to assume that you're a Chiefs fan because of their recent success. Annoying.

Im like, "bro, i was a Chiefs fan back when they were winning 2 games, murdering their pregnant GF's and then offin' themselves in the parking lot. Don't tell me 'bout no bandwagon shit..."

That sounds right, I remember going to donate and the goal was blown out of the water really fast.

I don't manage the Twitter account. I only have access to the FB account and I rarely use it anymore. That is MartyMac on Twitter.

Yup... IIRC, the original bit of fund raising got enough in for 3 banners to fly. From there... we flew over every remaining home game (sometimes twice) other than the Belcher game and we also buzzed the city twice.

The original quote was $625 to fly the banner and I came in with a post stating that I had the first $100 on it if people wanted to jump in.

I love the idea that SOC is what started the turnaround, but I wonder if it was really just the empty seats and reduced revenue that got the Hunts to get off their asses and change things.

Has Clark ever publicly admitted to SOC being the impetus for change?

A culmination of the toxic environment created by "Odd" Todd and "Candy wrappers" Pioli.

I've been a Chiefs fan since the Bill Kenney days and that was the low point.

TBH... I'm not really sure. It is definitely a higher quality replica and not the real deal as there are no .925/k stamps on it. If I had to guess... it was this one based on the fact that it is basically identical as far as I can tell.

If I ever got to meet Hunt I'd straight up ask him "So.....Herm and then Pioli....WTF man?"
