Chiefs Classic Picture Competition

I know in the end of March, Matt_Grbac had a picture competition FanPost that was very popular and an amazing break from talking about the draft and trade possibilities. I must do this for my love of classic pictures that have been posted on the site recently. Oldchiefsfan’s recent FanPost Revisiting Superbowl IV had many great classical Chiefs pictures. So I thought why not have a little more fun with it and take an approach with older or classical Chiefs pictures! This is the perfect time for this when we’re about to take on the AFL remembrance season. I would say anywhere from DT’s era and before would be suitable. The winner will be the picture with the most Rec’s and you win bragging rights!
Rules will be similar to Matt_Grbac’s competition:
1. Photoshopped pictures will count (although I think we’ll have fewer of them with classic pictures).
2. Feel free to post as many as you like.
3. My classification of classic Chief’s pictures would be from the moment the Chief’s (Texans) were formed to the Derrick Thomas era (however you can be the judge so this isn’t really a rule).
4. You can include pictures classic memorabilia or paintings.
5. Competition will end in one week, Tuesday May 12th at Noon central time.
6. Remember to Rec your favorites!!!
This is a FanPost and does not necessarily reflect the views of Arrowhead Pride's writers or editors. It does reflect the views of this particular fan though, which is as important as the views of Arrowhead Pride writers or editors.

I have a technical question.
I have a drawing I did as a kid. It needs to be on the web. Once scanned, whats the best way for me to get it online so I can link to the url?
I do not snort the coke I only smoke...sensimilla.
a web uploading site.
there are tons of them. Photobucket is nice but you have to set up an account
http://tinypic.com/ is great because you just upload.

Good call..
I won’t be able to put mine up for a day or so but it will blow your mind.

I think http://photobucket.com/ is a good way
However, I’ve never personally used it. Anybody else have ideas? I have had trouble with that in the past as well.

The guys that played in the 60's would look smaller to today's players
playing the same position, but Buch still looks big even for today’s standard.

I gave my poster to my 2 year old nephew. It’s hanging in his room in Norfolk, next to my old “Back to Back to Back” poster with Williams, Okoye, and Word.

On the NW end of the main concorse where they hung all the pictures down from the cieling there was a perfect shot of Grunhard, Szott, and Alt dropping into pass blocking. I call the PR department at Arrowhead to try to get a copy. Never got it done. Does anyone remember this photo and have a copy?

Classic doesn’t necessarily mean old. It does if you’re referring to ancient Greece, Rome or automobiles.
