I live in LA and my wife saw a guy wearing a Mahomes T-Shirt. She yelled "CHIEEEEEEFS" at him and they chatted for a minute. (Which I love because she is from NY and I've dragged her into football fandom) She said I was from Lee's Summit and he had a blank look on his face. She asked if he was from KC and he said "no". He is an LA native.
Having lived out here 14 years I have NEVER encountered a someone in KC gear that wasn't either from KC or wearing it for fashion. This dude just chose to be a Chiefs fan because of our quarterback. The fact that it is specifically a Mahomes shirt means he would have had to order it. I don't know if this will mean as much to those living in KC, but this blew me away.
We're going to be the next Patriots. Mostly thanks to #15. People across the country are going to love us and then hate us. Can't wait.
