Kansas City Chief's vs. Denver Bronco's
Just like the days in Denver- Bronco Football, tailgating, great friends & good times!! Last weekend we (just me & DJ) headed down to KC to visit my friend Brandy. We were definitely in need of a couples weekend & my Mom was AWESOME to come & stay with the kiddos all weekend~ HUGE Thank you Mom!!! Brandy had called a little over a week earlier & said they had extra Bronco tickets. I know Brandy from Denver & she is a BIG Bronco fan. Her only stipulation was we had to wear Bronco gear. We really aren't Bronco fans, we do have one sweatshirt, but the weather was going to be too warm for that. We did find Orange shirts to wear & we said "Go Broncos" a few times =)
We left Friday night for Brandy's (about an hour from KC), got there pretty late, around 11:30, so we only chatted a bit before heading off to bed. Got up Saturday & Jared made us breakfast~ yummy! Then we headed out to do some shopping. We hit an Archiver's~ fun, fun & then to OTB for lunch. (OTB is On The Border, my favorite restaurant!) It was soooo good, but I way over ate, I just can't stop with a few chips & salsa!! We did a little more shopping before heading home for a couple drinks, ladder golf (it was my first time) & grilled dinner.
Sunday we got up & drove to KC to do some tailgating before the noon game. Here is a view of Arrowhead Stadium from our tailgating spot.We had a great time- didn't get many pics, when do I lately?
Here is a pic of Brandy & her fiancé Jared, tailgating in their Bronco gear.Here is a view from our seats on club level. They were great seats, we could see the whole field & they were in the shade~ HUGE plus for me. It was like 89 degrees that day. Too hot for football!At half-time we moved down by Brandy & Jared, they were on the 30 yard line, 9 rows from the field. Also, great seats, but in the sun. It was HOT, HOT, HOT!!The Bronco's ended up losing the game, which they were supposed to win easily. I have to give it up to the Chief's fans. They are really fun fans. It was a great stadium to see a game & all the fans were super nice~ even to us "Bronco fans". There was just fun banter back & forth. I was actually pleasantly surprised how nice all the Chief's fans were to the Bronco fans~ you don't always see that.

You guys look awesome in your Bronco gear. Too bad they lost but it sounds like fun anyway. Tailgating is always a good time.
