Heartwarming tale: Should the Chiefs win the Super Bowl again, Kansas City plans to host a Valentine’s Day parade
Kansas City’s Chiefs Kingdom Champions Parade is scheduled for Wednesday, February 15.
Missouri’s Kansas City On Wednesday, the Finance, Governance, and Public Safety Committee of Kansas City, Missouri,
moved forward with an act designating funds in case a second Super Bowl parade is required in the middle of February.
According to the committee debate, if the Kansas City Chiefs defeat the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII on February 11 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas,
the parade would be held on Valentine’s Day, Wednesday, February 14.
When it comes to planning a championship parade before the Lombardi Trophy has been officially awarded, Mayor Quinton Lucas declared,
“It’s the biggest jinx of all time, but we did the same thing last year—although everyone might have forgotten.”
The committee suggested that the law be approved,
allocating $975,000 from the Neighborhood Tourist Development Fund to the Greater Kansas City Sports Commission
for the purpose of hiring them to manage and plan the championship parade.
Lucas, a devoted Chiefs supporter, made it apparent that he is not attempting to minimize the 49ers,
but rather wants the community to be ready in case Patrick Mahomes does something ridiculous once more.
Lucas declared, “No bulletin board material here.”
I would expect San Francisco residents would have to follow the same planning requirements or have separate budgetary practices.
Make a public records request if you’re a reporter in San Francisco to find out what they have planned as well.
Harrison Butker’s game-winning field goal in the closing seconds of the Chiefs’ 38-35 victory against Philadelphia
last year was made possible by a $750,000 donation from the KCMO City Council.
After the Royals last won a World Series in 2015, Kansas City held its third championship procession
through the downtown streets and celebration at Union Station in honor of their first Super Bowl victory in four years.
Lucas explained that the $225,000 price increase is the result of increased transportation expenses
as well as overtime for municipal and public safety employees.
The arrangement and path would resemble the festivities of Super Bowl LIV and LVII.
Let the rumors start on whether Taylor Swift might attend a Valentine’s Day parade with her boyfriend, Travis Kelce,
and still make it to Melbourne, Australia, for the start of her Eras Tour on Friday, February 16.
