So, who is making the trip up to River Falls for camp? Chris and I are contemplating attending depending on the cost. From my house, it appears to be 471 miles and seven hours and 49 minutes away. Here is a link to the River Falls website. They do an awesome job taking photos. There are literally hundreds each day.

man...

That would so fun to take a trip up to River Falls to cover the Chiefs. I would LOVE to do it myself but just don’t see it working out for me with work and all.

However I do plan on tweeting live the games at Arrowhead this year, so that has to count for something right…

471 Miles is gonna take you almost 8 hours?

C’mon Prime. You acting really old so you can get Pioli to sign you on for our LB corps? 471 miles should be six hours travel time max. Then again, that might just be because I’m a Californian and thats just how we do it.

For justice we must go to Don Pioli

Going by Google Maps

It takes me

6 hours to drive from St. Paul to Kansas City. It’s an hour from St. Paul to River Falls. So going out of your way (St. Paul) to River Falls is 7 hours. I don’t know if there is a quicker, direct route, but St. Paul is straight up 35.

So, who is making the trip up to River Falls for camp?

Not this guy. I know how boring preseason games are, I can’t imagine how boring practices are.

Boring?

How about Family Fun Night? An unknown local band playing on a small stage, undersized, overpriced food under a tent that looks like a family reunion, skydivers that sometimes land on the wrong field and fireworks that nobody sticks around for.

It’s a blast!

I'm pissed I missed Family Faith day last Sunday at the K.

I'll be going to camp.

I plan on heading over for training camp several times this year. I seriously doubt that I’ll try very hard to engage in any in depth reporting, but I’m happy to twitter my way through all the practices I make it to.
