Hope the rain is over before kickoff. I can deal with snow. Rain and freezing rain, not so much...
From the KC Star today:
It’s still a little more than 100 hours until kickoff of Saturday afternoon’s AFC Divisional Playoff game between the Chiefs and Colts at Arrowhead Stadium.
Obviously, a lot can happen between now and then regarding the weather, but it never hurts to take an early look at what the conditions might be like for the game.
At this time, it seems that Saturday could be chilly and wet at Arrowhead. I looked at what two national weather forecasters and four local meteorologists are saying could happen. They all seem to agree that precipitation is coming but not when it will happen:
The National Weather Service is calling for rain and snow on Friday night that will transition to snow. On Saturday, its forecast says, “Rain and snow likely, becoming all rain after noon, then gradually ending. Cloudy, with a high near 38. Chance of precipitation is 70 percent.”
I was at a Christmas Eve game in like 95 or 96, we were playing the Seahawks. It was cold. My wife had entered me in a contest to win tickets at KMart, and holy crap I won. We got an overnight stay at the Double Tree and "backstage passes" before the game. I got to meet Len in the booth, that was cool. But anyway, the game was fuggin' cold. Like in the 20's with wind. Wife (after about 7 hot chocolates) had to bow out...which meant I had to bow out. Chiefs won though. But I left before the 4th quarter.
Then December of 97 Went with my brother who is a Saints fan and our wives. His wife weighs like 90 pounds. It was ice rain the whole time. We left early cuz she was turning blue.
I now get tickets for games no later than November. **** that noise... [Reply]
December 2004 game vs. Denver is the coldest I’ve ever been at Arrowhead. I literally couldn’t feel my feet at the end of the game. Dante Hall returned the opening kickoff for a TD and KC kicked Denver’s ass. [Reply]

I went to that Titans 0° @ kickoff shitfest for my birthday two years ago. [Reply]
