LMAO at all my friends in Eastern Iowa growing up in the 70's that are still big Cowboy and Steeler fans... This was so worth the wait...

I see; and like, what you did there.

This smacks of Child Abuse. Please inform local CPS about parents forcing their kids to wear Bronco gear.

You must draw the line somewhere.

Yeah it's weird that parents would want to humiliate their children like that. Certainly questionable parenting.

holy shit its real

Agreed!

Amazing how far we've come!

All the kids who are in elementary school now that will be life long Chiefs fans because of Mahomes.

Like tiny pieces of sushi.

I was around for the glory years. The goal line stand in NY vs the Jets in the wild card round. Unexpectedly winning, on the road, the last AFL game ever played. On the field of (at that time) our fiercest rival. Being double digit underdogs to Minnesota and winning it all.

Then, on Christmas Day, Jan missed. And our team got old. Real fast. The raiders stayed great. Won 3 SB’s. Then the rise of Orange Crush. Then Fouts. Then Elway. And our franchise was just without a rudder it seemed.

Then Marty. Hope. Talent. HFA. But the QB’s were never enough. The defense, so good all the time. Buckled under the pressure of carrying a conservative offensive coach. Then Gunther. And Jimmy F’ing Rae. And Kurt. And hiring a kicker because during his tryout, it was cold, but he tore off his sleeves and played. So he must be tough. Shanks the kickoff and the ****ing Western Division title out of bounds. And with it, the only chance at the playoffs. (End of season tickets. Vowed to never return until they drafted a QB. Returned opening day 2017 after drafting PMII to watch Alex Smith beat the eagles with PMII on the bench. Wore a 17 year old Chiefs shirt.) I’m nothing, if not stubborn.

Then Vermiel and all those wasted tears. And The Golfer, given a head coaching position for some reason.

Saw the playoff losses.

But now? Don’t give a **** about what anybody thinks. They can look at me with a raised eyebrow about my fandom and I’ll point to the three trophies displayed in Arrowhead.

Like winnning the lottery and pointing at the giant check they issue.

I welcome any fan to the big tent.

i don't really care about the bandwagon. i was a chiefs fan before mahomes and i'll be a chiefs fan after. if people wanna hop on for the ride, that's fine.

the only thing that does slightly bother me is this budding narrative we didn't have fans before the mahomes/reid era. that is just plainly untrue. i think it's mostly coming from younger football fans, but i don't like seeing KC sold short like that.

Any fan who doesn’t understand arrowhead crowd noise that persisted for decades is a poser. **** em.

LMAO The crowd noise record was set pre Mahomes.

The NFL christened the Cowboys America's Team through NFL films. The Cowboys and their fans totally ran with it though.

Don't worry about people thinking you're a bandwagon fan. Own it. I'm a bandwagon Chiefs fan. I jumped on that bandwagon in about 1967 when I was 6 years old. Call me a bandwagon fan all you want. I don't care. I'm a Chiefs fan and I am going to enjoy the hell out of it.

We all need to really enjoy this era. It is very special and it won't last forever.
