Faith and Family Chapel presented by Church of the Resurrection: For the sixth-consecutive year, the Kansas City Chiefs will offer a non-denominational pregame chapel service for fans at Arrowhead Stadium who may miss their normal Sunday worship opportunities due to Chiefs games. The service, which is held in the east side of the Pavilion on the south side of Arrowhead Stadium, will take place every week there is a noon home game. Every service will feature a message and supplemental worship beginning at 10 a.m.

GEHA Drum Deck:New in 2019, the Chiefs are introducing an exciting new space to the Arrowhead Stadium gameday experience: the GEHA Drum Deck. Located below the west scoreboard in the upper level, the GEHA Drum Deck is a new, permanent site for two gameday traditions – the Drum Honoree and the Tony DiPardo Spirit Leader.

The new GEHA Drum Deck takes an exciting and important part of the gameday experience from the field level and elevates it to a more prominent position in the stadium, bringing fans in the upper level closer than ever before to a pair of special Arrowhead traditions.

Lamar Hunt Legacy Seat: To help celebrate the franchise's 60th season, the Kansas City Chiefs introduced the Lamar Hunt Legacy Seat at Arrowhead Stadium. For each home game in the 2019 season, the Chiefs will select one honoree (plus one guest) who embodies the spirit of Lamar Hunt and represents the four pillars of the Chiefs Mission: Win with Character, Unite our Community, Inspire our Fans and Honor Tradition.

The two gold seats are located in Section 121 of the lower bowl, symbolically positioned under Lamar Hunt's name in the team's Ring of Honor. Sunday's honoree is Carri King, a physical education teacher with 35 years of experience, including 30 years in the Kansas City Public School District.

King is committed to promoting and advancing the NFL's Play 60 message to her students, encouraging them to get 60 minutes of exercise each day. Additionally, King leads the district's professional development day, including Play 60 training sessions for all district physical education educators, as well as assists the district's coaches with both the Fuel Up to Play 60 and Play 60 Challenge programs. Finally, away from the Play 60 platform, King has established before- and after-school initiatives like the Marathon Kids running club to supplement her regular class periods, showing ingenuity and creativity in making sure students have opportunities to be active. The Chiefs are proud to name Carri King this week's Lamar Hunt Legacy Seat honoree.

50/50 Raffle: The Hunt Family Foundation 50/50 Raffle will benefit The Children's Place on Sunday. The Children's Place strives to help and support children who are victims of abuse and neglect. Two weeks ago, the Chiefs Women's Organization, comprised of wives and significant others of Kansas City Chiefs players, coaches and staff, visited The Children's Place to help the children decorate holiday crafts.

The winning ticket will be announced during the fourth quarter of the game and winners do not need to be present to win. Raffle tickets will remain on sale through the end of the third quarter. To help make purchasing raffle tickets at Arrowhead Stadium more accessible, a credit card option is now available at kiosks located inside the stadium. The winner has 30 days to redeem their ticket. The winning ticket will be announced in-stadium and on this page.

NEW! For fans that can't attend the game and are in the state of Missouri, raffle tickets can be purchased online*. To learn more about the 50/50 Raffle or to purchase your tickets, click here.

Hometown Hero: Greenwood (Mo.) Police Department Officer Andrew Hutchinson will be Sunday's Hometown Hero. Before joining the Police Department, Officer Hutchinson previously served in the Army National Guard as a Specialist and earned the Army Service Ribbon, the State of Emergency Ribbon and the Five Years of Service Ribbon.

Salute to Service Honoree: Staff Sergeant Courtney Hess will be Sunday's Salute to Service honoree.
