USWNT HC Vlatko Andonovski to serve as Chiefs’ Week 6 drum honoree vs. Bills
The Kansas City Chiefs have selected their drum honoree for Sunday afternoon’s tilt with the Buffalo Bills.
The team announced on Thursday that Vlatko Andonovski, head coach of the U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team, will serve as this week’s drum honoree. He’ll be up on the GEHA Drum Deck, banging the drum to get the crowd at Arrowhead Stadium fired up ahead of the game.
Andonovski has strong ties to the area, playing for the Kansas City Comets from 2001-2005. He previously coached the NWSL’s FC Kansas City from 2013-2017. He’s been the head coach of the USWNT since October of 2019, where he has a 41-4-6 career record including a CONCACAF W Championship title in 2022.
Other pregame entertainment will include a national anthem performance by award-winning singer and songwriter Grace Kinstler. The Gladstone Fire Department will present the colors. There will be a flyover of four combat helicopters from Fort Riley, Kansas.
Parking Gates will open at 11:00 a.m. CT and the Ford Tailgate District will open 30 minutes later, where there will be performances by DJ Lazer and The Stolen Winnebagos ahead of the game.
