You might of forgot we had season tickets for 4+ decades and no you never heard me bad mouth any fan season ticket holder or otherwise about selling their tickets..we often gave tickets to charities because selling tickets that were $200+ per seat was not easy. One of the last Festivus's we had was Vikings game and their fans showed in force. ..I'm out Most entertaining game I have seen in a long time. Good for those Viking fans. Also good that they were horribly disappointed at the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about a fan base that claims to be the loudest and best in the NFL yet they don't show up for games in which they have tickets. If I lived in the area and had season tickets I'd be at every game no matter who was playing and no matter how shitty the team was, I guess it comes down to personal commitment and whether a person is a diehard fan or just a fan. I know Denver fans who have season tickets and they don't have them for any other reason than for playoffs and the opportunity to buy SB tickets. cpete918 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very clear losing to a third string backup on a walk off FG wasn't what they thought they were paying for.

soonerborn77 276 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 I've said this before, it's why I don't care about home field. I don't know what it is but this team seems to get up for road games and you can see quotes from a few players that talked about hearing the Vikings fans pumped them up a little more.

My concern isn't so much home field advantage as much as how many playoff games they have to play and where. Having to play 3 games to make it to the SB is tough. Having to play two of the three on the road is tougher. Only having to play two games increases your chances and playing both at home, normally, is much better. At least playing two games and one of them being at home is much better than three games and two on the road, again NORMALLY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kkuenn 3,597 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Plus having the bye week is huge. Players can rest up, we can game plan etc. So a 1 or 2 seed would be great to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I wouldn't want anything lower then a 2nd seed and obviously if we have home field I'll expect MVP to change that narrative and make sure we win at home....

The biggest ripoff in sports is the NFL forcing season ticket holders to buy full price preseason tickets. It’s why I gave my tickets up after 25 years. So if I have tickets and can recoup some of that wasted money by selling a few regular season games, damn straight I get it. I did it with several Royals playoff games. Plus i know people who sold tickets to either GB or Minn game to pay for upcoming road trip. Like most games there will be thousands of Chiefs fans in Nashville oldtimer and cpete918 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
