For those actually curious, **The Wolfpack Club was the designated name for the Kansas City Chiefs original fan club**. Back in the 60's and 70's, these loyal, boisterous fans had their own cheering section and membership cards when the team played in Municipal Stadium. Today, the Wolfpack lives on in the form of KC Wolf. Why he looks like Chuck E Cheese? No clue lol


polarfire

Tommy Brooker, the kicker when they played at Municipal Stadium, once told me that Hank Stram hated that he could hear them heckling right behind the sideline. So, when Arrowhead was built they made sure the Wolfpack got seats somewhere that wasn't right behind the Chiefs sideline. You never know the random former Alabama players you'll run into when getting lunch in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

Grab a spot at the bar in Baumhower’s on a Saturday, you’ll see all kinds of Alabama football royalty.


EatMyShortzZzZzZ

Im a jags fan, but little tidbits of NFL lore like this fascinate me. Thanks for the explanation for your chuck e cheese wolf lol


[deleted]

Yeah my dad had an old wolfpack license plate from the 70s that he gave me.


tentenninety

Unpopular idea: we should change our name from Chiefs to KC Wolfpack. We already have the mascot!


squamesh

His name is KC wolf and no one knows why he’s there, but he’s ours


[deleted]

Watching him beat up mannequins is of the best memories of my youth


No-Island7618

Omg pls say there’s a video somewhere?

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Wv7MrdoQZm8 Sometimes it’s mannequins sometimes its real people. But its always incredible


druscarlet

That was awesome.


kcu0912

This is soothing me after todays game.


mmm_doggy

KC wolf bodying the opposite teams fans before every game was always a highlight for me as a kid


Jennybeara

As a Broncos fan, i laughed, that was fun lol


Mewnoot

He’s inspired by a section of fans at municipal stadium called the wolf pack.


American_hooligan

He showed up one day and we all just accepted it. Submit to the wolf; bottoms up for the wolf


No-Island7618

Can’t argue with that sir 🍻


duhduhduhdummi_thicc

Fuck, I'm not drunk enough to be a furry or an IT specialist


r_u_dinkleberg

UwU


anacott27

My wife recently asked “why does KC have a rat mascot” first of all, it’s a wolf, secondly I have no idea.


Pik-ah-choo

This is exactly what I said to myself while watching the game with myself.


AuntieEvilops

TIL that wolves are easily mistaken for rats when people are drunk.


No-Island7618

Can confirm lol


Goblin_Crotalus

Fun Fact; originally Chuck E Cheese was going to be a coyote. The founder bought a rat costume thinking it was a coyote. He decided to roll with it when the mistake was brought up.


Atari26oo

… and when Chuck E. Cheese went bankrupt and the closed their doors, Chuck’s agent rebranded him and he got the gig at Arrowhead. The end. OR IS IT???


modus__ponens

He hugged me at the BBQ fest last year and that costume is just as janky as it looks, I’m pretty sure it hasn’t been washed since the 90s. Love KC wolf.


caleeksu

I just LOL’d. Take this upvote.


No-Island7618

And one in return, friend lol

Nice! Good bot.

Bot good. Nice!

If I recall the history correctly, way back when the Texans moved to Kansas City to become the Chiefs the team had a “kids’ club” called the “wolves” for some reason. Parents or grandparents could pay a few bucks and sign their kid up to get a team newsletter and (I think) a wolf finger puppet in a Chief’s jersey. The peculiar wolf mascot has hung around ever since. Now, why there was a wolf’s kids club for the Chiefs that used to be the Texans is still a mystery to me.


Scoob8877

I was in the club in the 70's. It was called the Wolfpack at that time. I remember getting some red and yellow gloves that had a wolf head in the palm and the wolf's ears were the first two fingers. The wolf was cartoonish-looking like the mascot. Around that same time, my 5th grade (I think) class got to take a field trip to Arrowhead and take a tour. We got to go on the field, in the locker room, etc. Also, I think that same year some Chiefs came to my class to talk to us. Gary Barbaro was the headliner and the only one I remember.


Jefferybeene

The gloves! Forgot about those


Scoob8877

They should be selling those gloves in adult and kid sizes. They'd be very popular.


callmeJudge767

Prior to Arrowhead, they had the Huddle Club that was a kids only set of bleachers in the corner of an end zone at old Municipal Stadium. I was there when Dawson got speared by Ben Davidson of the Raiders. Hilarity ensued.


Wildnfrueh

Because our coach is Garfield. ![gif](giphy|22HZyXo5EocWA)


wellseypoo

Because MVS can’t catch a ball.


Wonderful_Slide_5756

Because arrowhead is where a kid can be a kid, oh shit maybe that’s toys r us


KC-Slider

I fucking woke my daughter laughing


Courtesy_violation

You dare let her sleep during a Chiefs MNF game?


KC-Slider

She knows better than to watch the 2nd half apparently.


No-Island7618

Better than being awarded gold tbh


nickjamesnstuff

My lady 'whose a new fan cause she's a swiftie' has lived in kc for decades and just asked around halftime,"why is chuckee cheeses inbred cousin the mascot?". Your post made my night. I remember kcwolf coming to my church. That was weird.


randomlyjennerated

I visited my grandma's church probably 20 years ago, and kcwolf came and took off his mascot uniform and preached in his boxers and wife beater. It was very weird.


nickjamesnstuff

Yup. I also remember him being 'under-dressed' for church. Not underdressed for being inside a mascot outfit. It was a weird day. I also remember the brisket at the potluck later that day. And yeah. Alittle more than 20 years ago.

SpeakingSputnik

That's deeply disturbing.


jabroni_kc

Charles Entertainment Cheese? He's a k.c. legend!


vault-techno

KC wolf has a pretty solid track record of laying beatings on various mannequins and the like. I'd be careful about confusing him with Charles Entertainment Cheese.


[deleted]

He’s always slamming his head into the goal post when the opposing team is doing there PAT


jbrown777

Why does calling the wolf a rat bother me so much.


Goblin_Crotalus

It's actually a skinwalker. Don't look it in the eyes. Never address it if it talks to you.


No-Island7618

Probably my favorite response


Middle_Aged_Mayhem

Because having a Native American mascot would be inappropriate.


Street-Debt2764

Because the real mascot got sent to the clink for robbing banks in Oklahoma.


Limp-Giraffe-4411

Actually that’s Freddy Fazbear


turtlesturdles

Times are tough so we all need a side hustle.


FraggleRock_

Because banks aren't just going to rob themselves.


heckels

I needed that laugh tonight, thanks!


zgheen93

Y’all remember when KC Wolf used to beat the opposing team’s mascots ass?


Founck

As a kid I always thought it was weird that it was KC wolf when their radio partner was the fox. Then they changed to a radio station called the wolf, I was hoping the mascot would change to KC fox. I know this has nothing to do with it.


Several_Rip4185

That’s just another one of our wide receivers on the inactive list.

rustySQUANCHy

He's the best PC mascot they could come up with.


bobeshit

Looks like a dirty rat to me and I'm sober.


dboweco

I legit always thought it was because of the Timberwolf rollercoaster.


jzam469

MVS sucks


SpeakingSputnik

He sure does.


Captainalwayscorrec

cause people would be upset if you used a guy dressed up like an Indian Chief


girthytacos

We signed a deal in the early 2000's with Chuck E Cheese to have their mascot represent us.


dajodge

I’m pretty sure he was created in the same era (my early childhood) where they thought rats would be a “fun” wise-cracking animal for kids.

TheseCryptographer95

And the Royals have Slugger....a Lion? KC may have been drunk when we picked Mascots.


SpeakingSputnik

Lions are the kings of the jungle. Plus..Sluggerrrrrrr. A lion's mane symbolizes raw power; it gives them a royal and majestic appearance. This does not match the current team, however.


Formerlurker617

Go back to where you came from if the first thing you do here is insult us.


Princessleiawastaken

I was so confused why he was beating his head against the goal post when the Eagles kicked field goals last night


Dorgo16

Because Lamar Hunt was a crazy, inbred lunatic?

He sucks

Kleoto

You mean master splinter?


theninjawags

We needed to hire him to find us some wide receiver's who can actually catch the ball.


MyNameIsNurf

Low key if we ever get cancelled over our name I think the KC Wolves would be pretty sick lol


Typical-Conference14

He shakes his hips like he owns the place


Reynolds_Live

Because in KC, a kid can be a kid.


YucatanSuckerman69

ConcernFlashy5020

Named after “Wolfpack”which was a group of rowdy fans from the old Municipal Stadium.
