9 year old Chiefs Fan in Philly
Two years ago, I shared a post (link below) about my then 7 yr old son, a "lifelong" Chiefs fan living just outside Philly. He took a lot of heat wearing Chiefs gear to school. He loved the comments and support from so many on here, you guys were incredible and really lifted his spirits.
Now 9, he’s still all-in on the Chiefs but he is much more bold, he’s been been in a prank battle since the SB matchup was set. After the AFC Championship, he emailed his teacher a picture of himself in Chiefs gear. He went to school Monday morning to find his teacher turned his desk upside down with a "Go Birds" sign on it. The next morning he went in early and covered the teacher’s desk in hand made red and gold paper footballs and hung a hand drawn Chiefs Kingdom sign. His teacher edited the pic he sent replacing Chiefs with Eagles logos and displayed it on the board. He is going to make a bet with his teacher that if the Eagles win, my son has to wear an Eagles jersey to school and if the Chiefs win, his teacher will be wearing one of my son's Chiefs jerseys.
The response from Chiefs Kingdom two years ago was unreal. There were so many supportive comments, and people even checked with DMs weeks later to ask about him. The absolute highlight was Jack Stack BBQ sent us KC BBQ and gear, and Creed Humphrey sent him a personalized note. That kind of kindness was completely unexpected, it actually turned me into a Chiefs fan whenever they’re not playing the Eagles. Looking forward to another exciting KC/Philly SB.
