Chiefs to Host 2015 Game in London
As part of the NFL's International Series the Chiefs are headed to London to host the Lions on November 1, 2015

The National Football League announced on Thursday that the Kansas City Chiefs have been selected to host a regular-season game overseas for the first time in franchise history. The club will take on the Detroit Lions in London on Nov. 1, 2015. The Week 8 contest will be part of the NFL’s International Series played at Wembley Stadium, one of three NFL games taking place in the United Kingdom in 2015. The game will be televised live locally and nationally on FOX.

“It is an honor for Kansas City to represent the NFL on an international stage,” Chiefs President Mark Donovan said. "We are excited for the opportunity this creates for our fans, our city and the global growth of the Chiefs brand.”

Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt has played a key role in expanding the NFL’s footprint overseas. He has served as the International Committee’s Chairman since 2011. The International Series has grown from one regular season game in 2007 to three games in 2014. In total, 17 clubs have played games in London since 2007. Six NFL franchises will play at Wembley stadium in 2015. The Chiefs will host the Detroit Lions, the Miami Dolphins will host the New York Jets in a division matchup and the Jacksonville Jaguars will host the Buffalo Bills.

NFL International was formed in October of 1996. The league has held at least one regular-season game in London each year since 2007.

Clark Hunt in 2011 on a London game

''It's something we may be interested in. It's something we would be open to. I definitely can't sit here and say that we've made the decision that it would be good for us. There are a lot of things that go into that decision. It's something we would want to discuss with the community. We understand that taking a home game away from the market affects people. We would want to make sure there would be support for it.''

Clark Hunt in 2011 on losing a home game

''That's something that weighs very much in my mind. 'We have a tremendous home-field advantage at Arrowhead. That would be one of the main considerations.''

As a UK Chiefs Fan for 24 Years who travelled to KC in 2004 to watch them play I am delighted!!!!

Slightly surprised they didn't go for Bears or Packers as the other team though.

As a season ticket holder, this pisses me off. I bet they jack up ticket prices enough to spread the cost of losing that one game over the rest of the season...which will ROYALLY piss me off.

Wonder if that Chiefs fan in the Carhartt overalls will be banging his fat chick against an Aston Martin.

Supporting 3 games a season with +80k. Soon they'll expand to 5, then 6, then the London Jaguars.

Having NFL games in London is stupid. I wish they would stop it already. While they're at it, stop Thursday night too.

The NFL should have it set for 4 games in London every year. Rotate through the entire league in 4 years that everybody goes over there.

It's ******* silly, ridiculous & stupid.

7 home games, 8 away and a neutral site game. Sounds fair.

I was wondering about that...

Will the Chiefs charge the same for one less game?

Stay tuned.

Pretty sure the costs they lose from the home game will be covered in money gained from creating an international presence.

If its one thing the Hunts don't do, its lose money.

In fact, my guess is that they are actually making money from this decision, and Clark jumped at the chance to take advantage.
