You are spot on! And when they said BIG Chief, they were not kidding. He was HUGE, @ 350-400 Lbs. Used to see him when I was with Macy's and would go out for lunch and he would hold court. Really had nothing to do with Indians but one would never know it.

When I had tickets, we were on N F L Films twice. One time had a two table silver service set up with chilled wine and imported beer in the big bowls and champagne buckets. Our bunch was The K C Ski Club, LOL!

Was having my doubts, but Mahomies comes through once again in 4 th quarter!

Stadium sounded like Arrow Head South but no BBQ smell or smoke, LOL!

Though my 49'rs were defeated, they went from a 2018 4-12 record, to NFC Champs and a Superbowl team.

On the bright side, I won the 3rd quarter football pool at work, $100 a square. I didn't know I won until I came to work and my employees congrats me.

Congratulations!!

I was the only one at our party pulling for the Chiefs, but I was also fairly quiet about it. My reasoning was that, it's bad enough that the Patriots have caught up to my Steelers with a 6th Super Bowl win, there was just no way that I wanted to see another team (49ers) get that 6th win as well!

Many congratulations to your favorite/home team, Tom. It was a terrific game to watch. Your early morning GC post must mean you'd been out late celebrating somewhere?

Wish I had been.

It was amazing to see & hear all of the cheering for the Chiefs. Could not believe where fans were from. All over the country and even outside, LOL!

As one of MY Fraternity Brothers posted on F B when we were behind with @ 2 &1/2 Minutes, we got them just where we want them. Laffed my butt off cause it is true!
