Show Notes

Fans are returning to Arrowhead Stadium this season.

The Chiefs announced earlier this week that about 16,000 fans will be allowed to attend home games, at least the first three. Tickets will be sold in “pods,” with up to six seats in each pod. The pods will be spread throughout the stadium.

It will be a different fan experience, as it as it is for every sport in the COVID-19 world. Star columnists Sam Mellinger and Vahe Gregorian tell us what they think of the decision to allow fans on today’s episode of the daily SportsBeat KC podcast, hosted by Blair Kerkhoff.

After a break, Sam speaks about his column from Sunday and where, and how, high school sports fit right now. He interviewed coaches, administrators and parents about this subject, and came up with conclusions that you might not expect.
