Highway 64 has stake in Brigade...

You know that Neil Smith, the former Chiefs standout defensive end, has a spot in the ownership team that runs the Kansas City Brigade. He's not the only former Chief (or NFL player, for that matter) with an interest in Club.

Ralph Tamm, a former offensive lineman who spent time with a series of NFL teams, including KC, is also a part owner. Tamm currently lives in Colorado and has a horse ranch, as well as being involved with the Brigade.

Known as "Highway 64" when he played (64 was his uni number), Tamm had a reputation as a hardnosed lineman, actually finishing #3 on a list of the "dirtiest players" in the league at one point.

If you want to read more about Brigade co-owner Ralph Tamm's college and pro career or find out a little more about what happened to him after his playing days were over, you should check out the article I found at PhilyBurbs.
