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. |

I got in line at 4 and was in my seat by 5.
You were playing with fire if you got in line later. Your choice to be a fan who tailgates too long. |

It's gotten continually worse. Used to be safe if you got in line an hour before kickoff. Now I agree you need to get in line closer to an hour and a half to be safe. We actually must've found the best gate because we didn't really get in line until about 4:50, but made it to seats in time for intro and anthem.
Also recommend when you get in line, go for somewhere in the middle. People tend to walk up and clog the outer lines. This also kind of commits them to a particular x-ray station, whereas the middle has multiple stations. |

Look, anyone blaming the fans here has no idea what actually happened. The other gates didn't do this according to anyone else I spoke with. They were moving according to script. At this gate, however, the line wouldn't move for 10-15 minute intervals and then suddenly the entire thing would just squeeze forward 3-4 strides with people pushing like a phalanx in medieval war. I've had STs for over a decade and while I am usually in early, I've gone in at all different times and with over 100 games of experience under my belt I have NEVER seen anything like that. The people manning the Community America gate between lots F and E simply lost the damn thread. It was a complete failure on the part of Arrowhead and their security. |
