Kansas City joined Chicago, Green Bay, Minnesota and New Orleans to form the Cheese League. The five teams all practiced within driving distance of each other allowing the teams to practice with each other. The clubs agreed it was better to break up the Groundhog Day feel of training camp by holding joint practices.

"All of Wisconsin is so proud of the fact that we are the site of the birth of a new football league," Wisconsin Governor Tommy Thompson said. "That’s the Cheese League. The Kansas City Chiefs are the topping that makes everything happen. They are the only team that can fly into Minnesota, see the Metrodome on their way to training camp and come back there and play in the Super Bowl next January."
