ST. JOSEPH, Mo. — Fans turned out in record numbers last weekend at the Kansas City Chiefs training camp in St. Joseph, which included the annual Family Fun Day.

Missouri Western State University reports more than 8,000 fans observed the team practice Sunday, even more than attended the opening day of camp July 27, which was a record.

That came on the heels of the 7,500 fans who turned out for the Saturday practice, which was the annual Family Fun Day.

The Chiefs attracted more than 15,000 fans the first weekend and more than 16,000 this weekend.

Missouri Western State University has been the home of the Chiefs Training Camp for 10 years and though Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt has praised the facilities and the hospitality of St. Joseph, he says the team will listen to pitches from other cities to host the training camp.

Chiefs training camp concludes Aug. 15.
