The Chiefs battle the Ravens this Thursday, Sept 5, at 7:20 p.m. at Arrowhead Stadium. Before they kickoff, you can participate in one of Kansas City’s favorite pastimes from the comfort of your couch: tailgating.

Happening live on gameday at 5 p.m., the World’s Largest Tailgate returns, but this time as a game show. Producers promise to have “creators, Chiefs legends, and fans” stumble through:

  • The Sauce Relay — an obstacle course where contestants race while carrying containers of barbecue sauce.
  • The 2-Minute Drill — teams wear football helmet blindfolds and throw footballs at a target.
  • Coach’s Cheeseburger Challenge — blindfolded competitors attempt to assemble cheeseburgers.
  • Chiefs cup — Chiefs-themed flip cup, except the cups get larger as you go.

Ready to party? RSVP to the virtual tailgate.
