The Chiefs are playing in Tampa Bay this year on October 2nd. Sunday Night Football. This is the birthplace of Arrowhead South. We will rock this out of the park.
================================== I have confirmed with Caddy’s they will be able to accomedate us on Saturday. I’ll be there around 5:00 pm. Party goes until they close. Last time we had Chief fans there all day and night.
It’s also confirmed that Caddys will be able to get the TV on the beach to watch the Chiefs game on Sunday. Have the staff and supplies for the event. I’ll get there around 5:00 but if expect it’ll be packed by then.
The details about the Red Friday event are in the spoiler.
Spoiler!
We will have the Red Friday event at Caddy’s on the Beach. I've talked to the GM and we are all set and there will be extra staff for us.
This is the same place we had the TB SB Red Friday event that everyone loved. The pic below is from that Red Friday event. Only able to corral about 60% of the Chief fans for the picture.
Caddy’s can’t hold 1000+ of us at the same time but it’s right on the beach. We fans spilled out onto the beach. So everyone had room but we Chief fans were still all together. It’s directly on Sunset Beach. Public beach with free public access. You don’t have to buy a thing from Caddy’s if you don’t want to.
But, parking is severely limited. Got to walk in or have someone drop you off and then they walk in. It’s a free event. You want alcohol or food from Caddy’s, that’s on you.
Last time we were there, some fans were there all day and night.
We will have a 10% discount code for the cabana rentals. Caddy's will also be giving out $25 gift cards from Caddy's throughout the event, Will also be holding a free to enter raffle for an all day free cabana, Details on how to enter the raffle are forthcoming soon.

================================== We will host a free game watch party on Sunset Beach.
Spoiler!
Caddy’s will set up a big screen TV on the beach. You can bring your own chairs. Sit on the soft sand, whatever. The event is free to attend. A great option to be with your fellow Chief fans if you don’t want to pay $350 to sit in the nosebleeds.
There is a free public beach access next to Caddy’s. You don’t have to buy a thing from Caddy’s if you don’t want to.

I'll keep this post updated with the latest information [Reply]

Supposedly the NFL doesn't want to move the game to Miami because it would take away from resources that are working on the storm response, but with the storm not expected to have an impact in South Florida, they could still probably make it work.
Also a lot of people from Tampa and the west coast of Florida are heading to South Florida to ride out the storm, so it would be much easier for them... including the sizeable group of Chiefs fans that live in that part of the state... to attend a game in Miami than in Minneapolis. [Reply]
I’m going to the other side of the state to GTFO the way of Ian.
Caddy’s is obviously on the beach so it’ll flood. It’s still suppose to be raining hard on Friday morning. Already have KC fans telling me their flights and or hotels are canceled.
May have to have a Red Saturday party if Caddys is open? I’ll contact them after the storm passes through and see their situation. [Reply]

What a pisser. I’m out of town working and would have been flying back and driving over this weekend for the festivities, but it looks like I’m stuck in stinking ohio for another week. Hopefully they don’t get it too bad over there around St Pete Beach/Treasure Island. [Reply]

I’m hoping Caddys doesn't get hammered too bad and we can have a “Red Saturday” party. [Reply]
There are people that have been to the beach in that area and there are all kinds of trash, seaweed etc on the beach.
I’ll update when I can get an answer back from Caddys. Neither of these events may not happen at all.
If you are coming to the game, There is a lot of suffering going on is this area. People have lost their homes, cars, boats etc. please be respectful and mindful of the emotional toll this hurricane put on people. [Reply]
Maybe have 200 Chiefs fans help clear trash and what not as opposed to bugging the restaurant to make sure they're still good on hosting a visiting team's party. [Reply]
We are not having a Red Friday event tomorrow at Caddys. It’s too soon and most of the KC fans are coming in tomorrow. We will shoot for a Red Saturday event but we may cancel that and all other events this weekend.
