That is correct, football season is in full swing here in SA, and being the aficianado that I am for things with balls, I have adopted a new team to root for in addition to my long standing allegiance to the Peyton Manning TD Show(Ever try wearing a Broncos sweater in 90 degree heat? my Sundays have me getting a bit steamy cruising round town reppin the hometown boys). My New squad is the Chiefs, no not the hapless red and yellow chumps from down 1-70, but rather the Yellow and Black on SA's finest football team, the Kaizer Chiefs (and did I mention reigning champs- come on gotta back a winner when jumping a bandwagon).
How did I choose this new allegiance you wonder? Well it all has to do with my amigo Solly, who I expressed interest in the idea of going to a game one saturday afternoon working and making sure the skate ramp built on top of the building will keep boards from falling 3 stories down into the fish and chips shop below, that would be bad. I asked him about the games, and Solly told me lets go tonight, I will get the tickets, get you a jersey, and you will root for the Chiefs. Not much of a hard decision to make. So we did, and now a few games later, I can officially say I am a die hard fan, with more than 1 article of Chief gear. Already have 1 jersey, 1 street T, and some arm sleeves to protect the gun show from rain showers and/or just make me look sweet on demand. I will be taking orders for Chiefs gear upon my return home, so just send shirt or gun size and it shall be done.
Now that I have made this decision to root for the Chiefs, I haven't regretted a single moment. Besides the sheer fact of being a winning team, Chiefs games also get wild with fan support which your eyeballs will process in word and photo form shortly.
Ok here. Top 13 reasons I am, and you should be, a Chiefs Fan!
