A trip to Arrowhead Stadium is bound to be a deafening one. As home to one of the world's most animated sports crowds, the stadium currently holds the Guinness World Record for the loudest collective roar at a whopping 142.2 decibels. It is an impressive feat, especially considering that the stadium is open-air. This enthusiasm is not to be confused with hostility, however, as Chiefs crowds are known to be notably warm and welcoming.

The food is tremendous, too. Either at Kansas City's lavish, pre-game tailgate parties or amongst the sea of red-clad fans inside the stadium, scrumptious options are everywhere. As its name suggests, the Loaded Potato Skin Burger uses potato skin buns covered in cheese, bacon and sour cream. Yum! The Arrowhead Biscuit offers a zany blend of breakfast delights loaded into one sandwich. Of course, no trip to Arrowhead is complete without a taste of the famous local barbeque.

Kansas City Chiefs History

The Chiefs were founded as the Dallas Texans in 1959 by businessman, sports pioneer and American Football League founder Lamar Hunt. The team began playing in 1960 and moved to Kansas City three years later, prior to the 1963 season, and were renamed the Chiefs. In 1970, the club joined the NFL when it merged with the AFL. The team is still owned by the Hunt family and is led by Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt.

The team found success early on, earning a spot against the Green Bay Packers in the inaugural AFL-NFL Championship Game (eventually known as Super Bowl I) following the 1966 season. The team then went on to win its first AFL-NFL championship in Super Bowl IV against the Minnesota Vikings in January of 1970.

The organization has had 24 individuals inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame and has garnered five Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award winners – more than any other team – recognizing players for their off-field contributions.

Head Coach Andy Reid joined the team in 2013, and under his leadership, the Chiefs have made the playoffs consistently. The club won the AFC West from 2016-2022 and the Super Bowl in 2019 and 2022.
