Bengals have new nickname for Arrowhead stadium
Bengals vs. Chiefs is turning into quite the rivalry. And with QB Joe Burrow's recent dominance over Kansas City, Cincinnati players have a new nickname for the historic Arrowhead stadium.
It was first heard from CB Mike Hilton following the Bengals win in the divisional round of the playoffs. "We'll see ya'll in Burrowhead," he stated.
Word has since made its way to Kansas City, and Chiefs TE Travis Kelce isn't too happy with the disrespect towards his stadium.
"We are the loudest stadium in the world on record," Kelce said on his "New Heights" podcast. "Maybe we're going to have to break it this week because a lot of Cincinnati Bengals fans are calling it "Burrowhead" instead of Arrowhead."
The Bengals have won three straight against the Chiefs, but only one of the three matchups have been at Arrowhead. Fans in Kansas City might be louder than ever on Sunday.
However, Burrow isn't too worried because they've done it before, defeating the Chiefs in Kansas City for the AFC title just a year ago.
"We've been in these spots. We have the experience. We know what team we're playing," Burrow said. "We're coming for them."
If the Bengals are victorious for a fourth straight time, the Chiefs may just have to accept "Burrowhead" as their stadium's new nickname until they can finally get the best of Burrow.
