The Kansas City Chiefs have determined that fans will need a full five hours to prepare for Thursday Night Football against the Denver Broncos.
The Chiefs announced that the parking lots will open at 2:30 p.m. (Arrowhead Time) on Thursday. Or about five hours ahead of the 7:25 p.m. kickoff.
That means this stadium will be absolutely rockin' by the time kickoff gets here. There aren't many teams in the league that put on a better primetime experience than the Chiefs. They know what they're doing when it comes to this stuff.
The club level stadium gates to the stadium will open at 5 p.m. while all other gates will open at 6 p.m. The Chiefs always say you want to be in your seat early - partially to account for the large crowds but also because there is nothing better in this world than the view of Arrowhead Stadium going bonkers when the Thursday Night Football crew opens the broadcast. I love that.
Chase, your thoughts?
#ChiefsKingdom heard they are opening gates at 2:30pm on Thursday...haha....this should be fun! Might as well break the sound record again!
