Chiefs fans are not happy about playing a home game in London

The NFL announced the games for the 2015 installment of its International Series on Thursday, including a game between the Detroit Lions and the Kansas City Chiefs on Nov. 1, at which the Chiefs will be the nominal "home team."
When Kansas City fans found out about this, they were not very happy.
Guys, KC ain't getting no damn Super Bowl. But Clark Hunt is getting richer and the fans are getting screwed. What a total joke. #Chiefs

@adamteicher we aint happy about it. We pride ourselves on home games. This is a crock. It should count as an away game for both teams.

To make matters worse, Arrowhead Stadium recently received a massive renovation courtesy of the taxpayers.
Another thing: taxpayers put what, $250 million into Arrowhead renovations? So they coughed up money so the Chiefs could give up home game?

The designated home team in London games has traditionally been a team with poor home attendance, which is not the case for Kansas City.
This is unique because the #Chiefs are the “home” team in London that doesn’t have attendance issues. Ranked 7th in NFL last year.

The negative reaction from the team's fans has apparently already reached the top of the team's front office, as CEO Clark Hunt will not be speaking with reporters about the London game on Thursday.
FWIW, I'm told Clark Hunt will not be answering questions on this today. Trying to get Chiefs to change their minds on this.

Hunt may be the most upset of everyone, as Kansas City's London date with Detroit is one less day he gets to spend in the stadium's luxurious owner's suite.
