Kansas City Chiefs Clarify Rule Against Standing: No Excessive Standing

An Arrowhead Stadium Guideline That Should Take Care Of Itself
>7 days ago
Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City is home to some of the loudest fans in the NFL. Although, I've never experienced it first hand, the Chiefs offer arguable one of the best game experiences the league has to offer. Earlier this week, we caught wind of one experience that will no longer be tolerated inside the Arrowhead gates: standing. Yes, the terribly disrespectful act of standing up from one's seat was listing under the Fan Code of Conduct as being prohibited:
• Standing and/or obstructing the view of other fansAs you can imagine, this has caused quite an uproar amongst Chiefs and NFL fans alike. Local radio stations have blitzed with calls from angry fans questioning not only this new policy, but an added rule that will allow those in attendance to text message tattle tale on individual they feel are violating the Fan Code of Conduct.
I think the Chiefs have this backwards. Isn't tattling via text at a pro football in violation of the fan code?
In response to this backlash (that the Chiefs blame on misunderstanding bloggers), the organization has amended it's policy twice in the last two days. The first change stated that rules prohibit excessive standing and/or obstructing the view of other fans. Today, it was noted by FanHouse that the wording has once again been altered to read "continuous standing..."
So basically, the Chiefs would like for you to keep your standing minimal. I feel pretty confident this policy will take care of itself, seeing as how the offense will be led by Brodie Croyle, who imposes unto himself a similar rule limiting time spent in an upright position.
