I have my two seats, and for years I've bought the third from the family that sits next to me. I may have to stop doing that this year and just keep the two.
As far as how does I guy like me afford those seats? Well, the answer is, it's getting harder every year. I don't make a ton of money, and my wife is a retired teacher. I don't travel, or gamble, or own a boat, or a lake house, or anything like that. So the Chiefs get just about all of my "fun money."
As far as transferring seats to another person, the Chiefs will do that, but you have to pay them a fee. i think it's $50 or $100 per seat. If you fail to renew, the seats become open, and people who sign up for the seat relocation program would have a shot at them.
I really hate to look at these seats as a "commodity," but the Chiefs have turned them into that exactly. I'll probably buy these seats every year, until which at whatever point I'll just have to start scalping them to offset the costs. I really hate to do that, as I've never scalped one of my seats ever. The thought is depressing to me, because I was never buying these as an "investment." I just love football.
