The Kansas City Chiefs have found so much success in recent years that some fans have begun referring to the AFC playoffs as “The Arrowhead Invitational” amid the team’s reign as back-to-back Super Bowl champions.
Though Chiefs fans are sure to be thrilled to watch their favorite squad compete in January, the challenge of braving the winter cold in Western Missouri is a constant concern.
