GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, the home of the Kansas City Chiefs, falls closely behind (20th) with 13.3 concessions per 10,000 fans. Despite the Chiefs’ recent success on the field, the stadium’s concession availability is below the league median, potentially impacting fan experience during high-attendance events.
At the other end of the ranking, stadiums such as Highmark Stadium (Buffalo Bills) and M&T Bank Stadium (Baltimore Ravens) have the fewest concessions per 10,000 fans, with 6.0 and 7.7, respectively, potentially leading to longer wait times for refreshments.
Fan experience remains a crucial part of the modern NFL game day, with stadiums continuously upgrading facilities to enhance convenience.
