Vote in this poll if you actually live in Jackson county.
We've all shared our opinions in the other thread. But who gives a shit what somebody in Platte County or Johnson County or Phoenix or NYC thinks. We're all just noise. [Reply]

Sure, you may gain and lose some casual fans based on driving times, but otherwise not much changes.
SF moved.
The NYC teams play in New Jersey. Whatever.
Oh, right. KC fans are different.
Oh agreed. The folks like comochiefsfan crying that they’ll never drive to KS to watch the chiefs are largely full of shit. But it’s what we’ve got to talk about at the moment [Reply]

Chicago fans couldn't stop going nuts about Soldier Field moving to the suburbs. Those people are crazy there. If you don't live in a ten block square on the south side and know the very best Italian Beef sandwich place there, you aren't from the "real" Chicago, you're from "outside Chicago".
They're all stupid and it's because they have nothing else going on in their lives.

That's actually a great point. Probably offset by losing some fans in Missouri over time. People who aren't necessarily connected to KC but adopt the Chiefs because they are "Missouri's" team. It's actually something Clark should be looking at. Missouri is a much more populated state. [Reply]

If they keep winning they'll get way more fans because of that... [Reply]

If the Chiefs lose fans because the team moves across the border to Kansas then there is something wrong with their fandom. [Reply]
