The Kansas City Chiefs certainly know how to take care of their most loyal fans. It was just a year ago that the team announced they would be giving away an authentic custom Nike jersey to their season-ticket holders and this year the fans are in luck again.

While it may not be a gift that is worth a couple hundred dollars, Chiefs fans won’t have to go through the hassle of wondering whether or not the bag they want to take to Arrowhead Stadium is in compliance with the NFL’s new baggage policy, which prohibits bags larger than 12-inches by 6-inches by 12-inches.

The season-ticket holders will receive a free transparent bag branded with the Chiefs logo for every four seats they have.

“We want to help make the transition to the new policy as smooth as possible,” Chiefs president Mark Donovan said, via the Kansas City Star. “We hope that giving these approved plastic bags to our Season Ticket Holders will help with the adjustment and provide clear guidelines.”

There was a lot of concern from fans after the announcement of the new policy, but the Chiefs have taken things in to their own hands and made sure that their biggest and most loyal fans won’t have a worry in the world.

Instead of debating whether or not their bag meets requirements, they can scoop up their clear bag and head on out to the stadium. It may seem like a small gesture, but it is things like these that go a long way with the fans. Bravo, Kansas City.
