KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City Chiefs fans come out to support their team morning or night.

With a noon game Sunday, the fans waiting at Gate 5 were tailgating a bit differently.

One fan said she was there early to stake out a tailgating spot so the rest of her group could join later.

“We’re a little out of practice because it’s a noon game. We’ve been so spoiled with primetime games, so it's going to be cut a little short," said Alex, a Kansas City Chiefs fan. "We’ll just load up, head in, have a short tailgate, and go watch some Chiefs-Broncos."

Vehicles waiting for the parking gates to open were let in around 7:00 a.m. Sunday.

From there, fans fired up the grills and got to it for the day.

Kickoff is set for 12:00 p.m.
