In a "normal" game a % of the total are allocated for the visiting team to purchase. Is that still true in a pandemic when only a handfull of NFL teams are even allowing fans into the stands? Also do the Texan's family, friends, staff get to attend in person?

The rules just don't apply if you can buy the right people apparently. |

Fan restrictions are a joke.

I have to ask, does anybody care about the optics?
Because some of the people that said LDT had "bad form" are here saying "screw how this looks to the rest of the country". And there's people here saying that we need to be on our best behavior because it matters how we are perceived, but vehemently deny that LDT did anything wrong. When did hypocrisy take a backseat to partisanship? Come on guys, think about this a little bit. It's not that hard. |

But theoretically, we have to have groceries, toilet paper etc that we get at those stores to survive. We don't have to pack into football stadiums to survive. Well, some people don't. I do. |

And while I'm opposed to sweeping government mandates, how hard is it to put on a mask when you're asked? I wear one every time I go into a crowded place because I actually want people to know I care about how they feel about it, regardless of how I feel about it. I think everybody here wants to see more football this year. I hope we also realize, deep down, that if we keep separating ourselves into two camps and digging in our heals, that's not going to happen. There are times when we have to realize that our personal behavior does affect others and doing what is right by others is ALWAYS right, regardless of whether you view your individual behavior (or the reason behind it) as right or wrong. |

Only 5 teams out of 32 are even allowing fans in the stands as of today. We are lucky. It's a simple formula to me. The Chiefs make these rules. You agreed to those rules when you bought your ticket. If 1% don't follow the Chiefs rules, no biggie. If >50% don't follow the rules they agreed to, we risk have no fans in the stands for future games. Maybe some fans think it doesn't matter to have 16K fans in the stands or zero. I bet the players, coaches would rather have the 16K fans up in the stands. I think it matters. Just my opinion. Other opinions are free to differ. |

The simple fact is that this place is 20 years old and it was founded because of political BS at the Star Board. Despite trying to create a special place to hide political talk, pretty much every regular here knows the political leanings of everybody else here. And they just can't keep those biases out of the conversation. I'm just as guilty as anyone else most of the time but I'd like to think on this day, under these circumstances, we could all kind of look past it for a few hours. For the sake of football. |

If we act really good tonight, this will change the perception of 'flyover country, cow town, hillbillies'
so yes. |
