Some Kansas City Chiefs fans who attended one of the coldest NFL games on record in January are being told to schedule amputations following their hospitalizations for frostbite...

quote:
Seventy percent of frostbite patients that the Grossman Burn Center at Research Medical Center in Kansas City, Missouri received since January are being advised to undergo the life-altering procedure.

Many of the patients were among the daring fans who braved the elements at Arrowhead Stadium to watch the Chiefs’ 26-9 wild-card weekend victory over the Dolphins on Jan. 13.

“The patients who had their frostbite injuries along with the Chiefs game, they are just getting to the point now we are starting to discuss their amputations that might be necessary,” Dr. Megan Garcia director of the burn center told FOX 4 KC.

I was in KC that day and considered going to game (though not a KC fan) as some lower deck single ticket had dropped below $30 about 5 hours before game. Temp was -4/-31 wind chill. I had cold weather gear with me but realized that it probably wasn’t sufficient as I’m not used to that type of cold (I’m originally from Louisiana).

I think if you are smart about it, you could pull that game off as a fan without issue. Problem wasn’t necessarily the cold, it was too many people weren’t smart enough to dress correctly or know their limits.

Calling all plaintiff lawyers. They will find some way to get money from the NFL and the Chiefs.

Yep, the Chiefs created an attractive nuisance and did not tell the fans amputations could occur if you did not dress properly.
