Football fans across the country can count on Kansas City Chiefs tickets for some of the best football action anywhere. The Chiefs are known to be one of the most consistent teams around, despite suffering a terrible slump when it first crossed over from the AFL to the NFL.

The Kansas City Chiefs are a part of the National Football League and play under the American Football Conference and the AFC West. The Chiefs’ home ground is the Arrowhead Stadium and they currently have three league championships to their name and eight Division titles. They have yet to win a Conference championship.

From AFL To NFL
The Chiefs started out as an American Football League team, started by Lamar Hunt who was the son of an oil tycoon. After Hunt was denied an NFL franchise, he decided to start his own, which was called the Dallas Texans at the time. However, Dallas already had a football team and though the Texans were playing good football, the city simply could not manage two teams. The team was shifted to Kansas and renamed the Kansas City Chiefs.

Struggles and Success
Fan’s expectations and Kansas City Chiefs ticket sales were sky high once the Chiefs hit the NFL but something was wrong. The team seemed to be struggling and couldn’t re-create the glory they had shown in the AFL. Into the seventies, their performance got worse and worse and no amount of shaking up seemed to be doing the trick. Bad management, strikes and team incompatibility were taking their toll on the Chiefs.
