While the debate rages over the Kansas City Chiefs future at Arrowhead, Clark Hunt has ensured he will continue to enjoy the AFC champions in the ultimate luxury.
The Chiefs owner essentially has a three-storey mansion inside the iconic stadium that is considered the loudest outdoor venue in all of sports.

Arrowhead is home to NFL superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and co, and per head coach Andy Reid, the raucous atmosphere it generates each and every time the Chiefs walk out onto the field there has yielded a significant advantage for the home team.
But few know what lies just yards away from some of the fans, in an exquisite stadium suite perhaps bigger than some Missouri residents’ homes.
Clark Hunt’s suite is the only thing that has been renovated at Arrowhead
In a video posted to social media platform X (formerly Twitter), a clip – albeit very grainy – gives an inside look to the Hunt family’s suite that had a multi-million dollar renovation.
The 33 second clip depicts a space that spans three stories with a huge spiral staircase, stained glass windows and ample television screens throughout so nobody misses a second of football action.
The family and their guests can enjoy the football without having to step outside in frigid Missouri temperatures in the winter.
The video also shows a kitchen area, as well as multiple indoor seating arrangements, and the best part – the seats in the owner’s box which look out onto the field of play.
Although the suite has been renovated to a standard fit for a royal family, it is no secret that Arrowhead is in dire need of renovation everywhere else.
Since Clark’s father Lamar Hunt opened the stadium in 1972, it has not received any major upgrades, and is falling far behind the standards set by other teams around the league.
Chiefs rank poorly in NFLPA’s 2025 report cards
According to the NFL Player Association’s report cards for 2025, the Chiefs ranked 26th overall out of all 32 teams for overall working conditions for the players.

However, this is a vast upgrade on the 2024 season, when the four-time Super Bowl champions were graded 31st overall, ahead of only the Washington Commanders.
Whilst they were graded an A+ for head coach Reid, the Hunt family were rated a C-, which came in at 26th overall.
Other areas that the Chiefs ranked low in was their weight room (30th), training room (29th) and state of the locker room, where they ranked 28th overall (D-), ahead of only the Commanders (F), Denver Broncos (F), Cleveland Browns (F-) and Arizona Cardinals (F-).
But the Chiefs may yet keep up with the times as they have two options for their future – to renovate the iconic Arrowhead, or to move across state lines from Missouri to Kansas City, where there are plans for a $3 billion brand new state-of-the-art dome.
No final decision has yet been made with regards to which option the Chiefs will opt to choose, with them having recently been granted a decision extension that runs to the end of 2025.
Hunt, who is worth $1.6 billion, is grateful to have two such appealing options on the table.
“We’re grateful to have two really good options,” Hunt said.

“I don’t want to get into how close we are to making a decision because I found over time with stadium situations that until they’re done, they’re not done. There’s a lot of work, a lot of moving parts, and we’re working through those.
“Certainly, I would say we feel urgency to bringing the process to a conclusion, but that doesn’t mean I can will it to happen in any specified period of time.”
However, their hand may be forced in one direction, with a lawsuit having been filed arguing that the $800 million renovation plans are unconstitutional as it grants public money to private persons, has multiple subjects involved, and plans have deviated from its original purpose.
The outcome of such a lawsuit, and whether it holds up, remains to be seen.
