Here are some things you need to know to get ready for game day.ESTShareTweetShareShareFan Guide: Tips for Colts fans traveling to Arrowhead Stadium SaturdayIt looks like the Colts will be playing in a genuine classic “playoff football” type game when they take the field on Saturday at Arrowhead Stadium. With a winter storm system moving through the area, the national weather service has issued a winter weather advisory for Friday beginning at 6pm and stretching until 6pm Saturday. While it doesn’t look like they’ll face whiteout conditions during the actual course of the game, it is a possibility, and the area could have anywhere from 3-5 inches of snow dumped on it. That means tougher playing conditions that will favor the running game, as well as tougher conditions for fans who are showing up to cheer the action. If you are one of the Colts faithful making that trip, we’ve got a couple tips for you. First, if you can, you need to get on the road fairly early. The reports are that conditions will worsen quickly, and so if you have that drive to make, best to do it by midday so you can be arriving before the snow. We need Colts fans in the bleachers, not the hospital. Second, if you’ve never been to a cold weather game, it should be obvious, but you need to layer up. You obviously will want hats, gloves, and lots of layers, but as Chris Shepherd advised, the thing people forget about is that the concrete at Arrowhead is the real enemy. Your feet up against it can end up the coldest, and so boots or shoes with thick soles and thick socks are ideal. Some people even bring foam blocks to put their feet on for insulation from the cold concrete.Here are a handful of other great tips straight from the mouths of Chiefs fansEat BBQ while there Nyheim Hines Jersey 2019 , because, obviously. Gates BBQ received a strong endorsement, but I doubt you can really go wrong.Alongside the BBQ tip, it is important to note that there isn’t really anything within walking distance of the stadium like there is in Indy, so get your food before you get to the stadium.Arrive early. Typically an hour would be ideal, but given the weather I’d shoot for a couple hours early. People are idiots when it snows.Parking isn’t cheap for these games and given weather conditions you’ll prefer being closer. If you prepay for your parking, it costs $35. Wait for game day and you’ll pay $60. Standard clear bag rules apply for attendance, so make sure if you have a bag it is clear. These can be purchased around the stadium if needed, but obviously it is ideal to do that in advance.You are allowed to bring blankets, hand warmers, cardboard, or foam, as mentioned above, to keep your feet off the concrete.Stay hydrated! If your throat is dry, you can’t cheer as effectively. Be ready to bring it for the Colts and that means drinking lots of water in addition to whatever else you drink. Cough drops aren’t a bad idea here either.Plan for a decent wait after the game. Given bad weather it could take between 1-2 hours to get to the highway from the stadium, so don’t get in a rush.Follow @arrowheadevents which is the Stadium’s official Twitter feed and will provide traffic updates on game day.You can also call a Fan Experience person at 816-920-4237 starting 5 hours prior to kickoff with any questionsKnow which lot makes the most sense and which gates will get you heading home the quickest. If you’re heading back toward Indiana, Lot A, Lot J, and Lot N on the north side of the stadium are good bets because their gates are nearest to I-70 to get you on your way home. Here is the Chiefs’ page for directions.Keep an eye out for Brett White Malik Hooker Jersey , Chris Shepherd, and Ana at the game. They’ll be representing the Stampede Blue crew on the ground, and if you find them and buy them a drink, it probably won’t hurt their feelings. Just think of it like “Where’s Waldo.”If you’ve been to Arrowhead and have any tips, drop them in the comments. For those of you going to the game, represent the horseshoe well and scream your lungs out on Saturday. Go Colts! Adam Vinatieri started his career as a young kicker in awe of the stats of a Hall of Famer such as Morten Andersen.As a rookie in New England, the lofty numbers seemed as out of reach as a 70-yard field goal."I remember playing against him early in the league going, so many points, no one's even going to come close," Vinatieri said.Come close?Vinatieri is on the brink of passing Andersen in career field goals and total points and putting the final bows on a career that has him destined for Canton, Ohio.The 45-year-old Vinatieri kicked field goals of 35, 31 and 28 yards on Sunday to match Andersen for most field goals in NFL history with 565.Vinatieri added an extra point to finish with 10 points in the game, putting him 33 shy of matching Andersen (2,544) for the most points scored in NFL history."That's the one," Vinatieri said. "Nobody every pays attention to who has the most field goals. It's who's got the most points. They almost run hand-in-hand. It'd be fun if it happens."The scoring mark could fall in a few weeks.But on a soggy Sunday in Philadelphia, Vinatieri at least snagged a share of Andersen's field-goal record. The Colts couldn't take advantage in a 20-16 loss to the Super Bowl champion Eagles, setting the stage for Vinatieri to set the field goal record next week at home against the Houston Texans."It's obviously special," Vinatieri said, "but gosh dang it Malik Hooker Jersey 2019 , when you do it on a close game and you lose, it just doesn't feel quite the same. It's a record that's been a long time coming. I just appreciate the opportunities I have."Andersen needed 709 attempts to set the record; Vinatieri just 670 in 23 seasons to tie."We put him in situations to give us three and he delivers every time," Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton said.Vinatieri was already the NFL's postseason record holder for scoring (234) and field goals (56); and he hit two Super Bowl winners in the final minute. He's won four Super Bowls and was the only unanimous selection on the Super Bowl 50 Golden Team.He made 263 field goals in 10 years with the New England Patriots and has 302 with the Colts.Few fans will forget the two kicks he made in the Snow Bowl, or "Tuck Rule" game, to help New England beat Oakland in a divisional-round playoff game following the 2001 season. It helped the Patriots capture their first Super Bowl.Last year, the oldest player in the league made a seemingly impossible extra point to force overtime in a December blizzard in Buffalo and helped keep the Colts within striking distance just 13 days later in monsoon-like weather in Baltimore.Last year, with a new long snapper and a new holder, Vinatieri made 85.3 percent of his field goals."I like to step out there and kick field goals," he said, "but it's better kicking extra points, that's for sure."Vinatieri remembers talking to Andersen, one of only two full-time kickers in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, about the secrets to enjoying a long, successful career.Staying healthy, for sure.And the other?"Stubbornness, probably," Vinatieri said, smiling. "There's a lot of great young guys around and I think my joy of being around these young guys and trying to compete against guys half my age ... I'd contribute that to it a little bit."
