Some Kansas City Chiefs fans who braved the below-freezing temperatures to watch the Kansas City Chiefs against the Miami Dolphins during the 2023 NFL Playoffs on Jan. 13 – when it was -4 degrees Fahrenheit and wind chills measured at -20 at kickoff – could possibly need to have amputations after suffering frostbite.

Unfortunately, due to the extreme cold, dozens of fans suffered from frostbite and were transported to the hospital with hypothermia-related injuries, according to a Kansas City Fire Department spokesperson.

According to Nexstar’s WDAF, Dr. Megan Garcia, the medical director of the Grossman Burn Center in Kansas City, 70% of the patients admitted due to frostbite during the extreme cold weather had been advised to undergo amputation.

Dr. Garcia said that 30% of the patients who had suffered from frostbite are dealing with ongoing health problems.

Sounds like they didn't adequately plan. My fiances sister has a health issue and skipped that game. It sucks, but she prioritized her health. I know I'm probably sounding cold, but a lot of society today thinks they can do anything in any way and there's zero risk.

I think they are Missourians, but yes they are stupid. Three of them got blitzed in a backyard and froze to death after watching a game.

Congress needs to outlaw outside games in freezing weather!


Apparently some Americans are too fricking stupide to know when they are too cold and should move inside to warm up.
