But they do also show how far Chiefs territory expands beyond metropolitan Kansas City - which it has for years: I remember the team's old offices on 63d Street in Swope Park had a lit sign depicting an Indian chief riding a horse against the background of six states - Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Arkansas.
Other teams can claim part of all six as their territory, both then and now*, but Chiefs country extended into all six - including Des Moines, where the supermarket chain is based, as was noted above, and definitely Omaha, Kansas City's little sister upriver.
*Well, until St. Louis gets an NFL team back, Missouri maybe less so now.
