Pregame: bought cheap ticks and took my 2 older kids. They were determined. Also my cousin who is good at getting in places free.
ATTIRE: 2 long undies, jeans, regular socks, 2 wool socks, boots, carhartt bibs, thermal shirt, flannel, hoodie, coat, stocking hat, face shield thing, gloves and mittens with hand warmers inside
Q1: cousin and I are determined to not go to upper deck. We try twice to sneak into club level, they give us the heave ho. watch first 6 minutes of the game from the 30 about 15 rows up. Rice scores a TD, we party. Eventually get kicked out, head to upper deck. Upper deck has a lot of empties but the lower deck is packed. Find an empty row about 5 rows from the front for the rest of the first half.
Q2: oldest and me are debating leaving at half. Wind is insane in the uppers and his face is turning colors. He has a scarf so I trade him my face guard for his scarf. Rest of the game I'm holding a blanket over my face. Tyreek scores. Whatever. Cousin birdseyes 2 empty rows in the lowers so at 2 min warn we head back down. Spend over a thousand dollars on 2 hot chocs with souvenir travel mug with Kelce on it. I'm ready to leave but kids won't let me.
Halftime: bathroom breaks. We find the empties we spotted in row 11 of section 116, right on the goal line. Crowd isn't packed but there is a ton of energy. I tell kids I am not going to buy food because of the mess and hassle with gloves etc but will text mom to order some 'za. I see a girl with no shirt just a sports bra get wheeled out in a wheelchair handcuffed screaming at the top of her lungs. Arrowhead baby.
Q3: Everything is fine but my feet. I'm on cardboard but it doesn't matter. My toes are frozed. Kids are ok but their mike and ikes froze so that was a bummer. Chiefs are rolling, Miami looks helpless. Pat's run where he cracks his dome is right in front of us! Yeah Chiefs!
Q4: I can see McCarthy losing his marbles after the roughing penalty. I like him usually but not tonight skinny nerd! Tonight is not for skinny people! Paccecho scores and I'm ready to leave. We get a stop and I'm like "let's roll". Walk back to the car is physically painful with wind in my face. When the car starts it's the happiest I've been probably this decade. We listen to CEH fumble on the radio. That rascal. A smooth ride home with Mitch praising the kingdom. Oldest kid is convinced Pittsburgh will win and we'll face Houston. Perhaps!
It's 10:45 and we're home. "Wow you got out of there quick!" "Yeah not much traffic since we bailed a few minutes early." "Mom! did you hear it was the coldest game ever at Arrowhead? I can't wait to tell my friends I was there!" "So...... I ordered pizza but it isn't here yet" "That's ok mom! we watched part of the game in the upper deck and it was so windy! Dad wanted to leave at halftime! We kept looking for Taylor but I couldn't find her! Dad bought us hot chocolate and Mom, a guy in front of us had his beer freeze!" Pizza is here. I eat and go to bed. Stay in bed til noon on Sunday.
