You can feel the kids and the generations of happiness and the generations of just love that they have coming together on Sundays and cheering for their team. It’s a beautiful thing. It’s something I know that I’ll cherish forever. It’s those moments coming out of the tunnel or just making a big play late in the game. That’s why we love Arrowhead. It’s a special and unique stadium.”
