Fans stop wife-shover at Arrowhead

A husband-wife squabble turned ugly at Arrowhead Stadium yesterday when he pushed her up against a car, police said. Other fans intervened and held the man until police arrived. He was arrested and charged with assault, police said.
The arrest was one of two assault cases during the game, police said. There were also three ejections by Kansas City police; ejection totals by stadium personnel and Missouri Highway Patrol troopers were not available.
Additionally, a man trying to scalp a pocketful of game tickets outside the stadium was arrested on a city probation violation warrant.

Sounds like another busy day at Arrowhead. Incidents like these are the reason I stay at home and watch the game. Any shoving going on around here is due to someone trying to make it to the kitchen to get chili!! lol

blondie: I can't imagine why anybody would want to risk their lives to see a game outdoors with a bunch of jackasses like they're writing about these days. LOL I agree with you: stay home and stay safe.

For sure vibiana. The cheifs aren't doing that great anyhow, and snacks and beer are cheaper when you serve them at home!

Plus you don't have to worry about driving home wasted either. :)

I didnt realize how bad the games can be sometime, I went to a preseason game with my little brother (through BBBS) and I was amazed at the absolute drunken stupidity of some of these people. After the game when we were walking to our car, a group of three guys in their early 20's dropped the N-bomb (my little brother is black and is 10) and kicked a half full beer can at us.

When I commented on how ignorant of a thing that was, I had to opportunity to show my little brother how to take the high road and walk away from a fight. Thats right, the three of them wanted to fight me and my little brother. Stupid people.

openmind: That's common of people who get overly intoxicated.. As the saying goes "Instant a$$hole, just add acohol."
