Chiefs Have NFL’s ‘Happiest’ Fan Base, Data Reveals

The Kansas City Chiefs’ recent success has apparently buoyed the demeanor of their fan base ahead of the upcoming season.

The Kansas City Chiefs are hard at work preparing for the start of training camp on July 24.

Accordingly, members of Chiefs Kingdom are planning to descend upon Missouri Western State University in St. Joseph to personally scout their favorite team’s prospects for the upcoming season.

In fact, one sports betting outlet projects that they will be doing so as the happiest fans in the NFL.

Recently, Casino.org examined fans’ current team satisfaction levels to determine the most/least miserable NFL fan bases. Using a nationwide survey and a weighted index, they assessed factors such as Super Bowl optimism, contentment with management, mood changes when players get injured, irritation levels when their team loses, and more.

Here’s what Chiefs fans revealed:

The Kansas City Chiefs rank No. 1 in the happiest fans in the NFL, with an unhappiness score of 13.24/100; first among all 32 teams.

A unanimous 100 percent of the polled fan base believes that the Chiefs have a chance of making it to the Super Bowl.

Only one-in-four fans find game day expenses to be too expensive (tickets, merch, food/drinks.)

On a scale of 1 (very disappointed) to 5 (very satisfied) of team performance in the last five years, fans gave an average of 4.7.

98.7 percent of fans are happy with the current team roster. 

As the Chiefs prepare to pursue a championship three-peat — a goal which no NFL team has accomplished in the Super Bowl era — they will once again be among the NFL’s most intriguing teams. 

As a three-time Super Bowl Champion (including three Super Bowl MVPs,) two-time NFL MVP and three-time All Pro, quarterback Patrick Mahomes has already had the career about which most athletes can only dream. At age 28, he is just entering the prime of his career. His top target, tight end Travis Kelce — in addition to his high-profile relationship with pop superstar Taylor Swift — is a nine-time Pro Bowler and a seven-time All-Pro with four first-team nods. 

The Chiefs have also upgraded their vertical passing game by adding veteran receivers Marquise “Hollywood” Brown and rookie speedster Xavier Worthy.
