Most Chiefs fans probably know it, but "Chiefs" is in reference to the mayor of KC who helped Lamar Hunt move the team up from Dallas. His knickname was "The Big Chief" as I recall.

Of course, the arrowhead emblem implies Native American origin, and the original Chiefs emblem was pretty blatant.

I had a stocking cap with this emblem on it, and the words "Big Red from the Flatlands."
