Enrique’s Video Vault/MNF 3 Weeks Away

A week ago, we brought up the fact that the Chiefs have not won a game on Monday Night Football since 2004. But to find the last time that the Red and Gold squad prevailed on a Monday night at home, well … we had to dig a little deeper.

A nostalgic trip down memory lane takes us back to the 2000 season, to the entertaining Week 5 contest between the Seahawks and the Chiefs. Outstanding performances by Derrick Alexander, Eric Hicks and Elvis Grbac (yes, even him) paled in comparison to the night’s biggest accomplishment: the 82,893 fans drawn to the Truman Sports Complex, thanks to an arranged simulcast in Kauffman Stadium that contributed 4,391 rowdy supporters. That (combined) attendance figure remains the highest in team history and fortunately, they all got their money’s worth.

Only three weeks away from writing a new prime-time chapter, once again, enjoy the memory.

    Thanks Enrique.

    Time to end the 10 year drought at Arrowhead on Monday night. Maybe Dwayne Bowe can duplicate the Derrick Alexander performance.
    Go Chiefs.

    Thanks Jimbo. And don’t worry about the drought, it will end this year.

    Man I love these videos you’re able to share with us.

    The color narrative about KC’s victories over division revivals poked my memory — I forgot Seattle was an AFC West team then!

    Thanks Dan-NY. And trust me: I’m happy that I’m able to share them.
