Chiefs Restore Arrowhead Stadium Name

The Kansas City Chiefs have officially restored the iconic Arrowhead Stadium name after the GEHA naming rights deal failed to gain traction with fans and team personnel.

The home of the Kansas City Chiefs will once again be known simply as Arrowhead Stadium. The team announced Wednesday that the venue had shed its official name, GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, after the naming rights agreement with the Government Employees Health Association allowed for the return to the classic name.

Despite the official name change from the 2021 deal, fans, players, and coaches consistently referred to it as Arrowhead Stadium, which it has been called since opening in 1972. The Chiefs will continue playing at Arrowhead until their lease expires in 2031, when they will move to a new $3 billion domed stadium being built across the state line in Kansas. goldparty.lat
