Chiefs Chiefs Trivia: team name

Prison Bitch · 03-09-2018, 06:54 PM

In 1963 when the team moved here from Dallas, Lamar wanted to keep the name "Texans" but Jack Steadman talked him out of that ridiculous idea. The Star held a contest to name the team. First place: Mules.

What was the runner up suggestion?

**Rain Man** · 03-09-2018, 08:00 PM

Ermines.

i guess the way the chiefs have been donkey punched over the years, the mules sounds about right

Garcia Bronco · 03-09-2018, 08:27 PM

So you mean all this time you could have been the mules? Hahhahahha

I dont know but if the Chiefs ever decide to change their name we need to become the KANSAS CITY FLYING SQUIRRELS

What a fantastic animal

I did an elimination thing since I can't remember. The Jayhawks, Penises, and Sporting had to be thrown out right away. I believe the name Royals was given to the baseball team because Mr. Kauffman's company used a crown or something similar for a company logo. Therefore, my answer is Rattlesnakes. Damn, that would have been awful. The winner, Chiefs, was an homage to former mayor H. Roe Bartle, who's nickname was "Chief" for all you youngsters. You're welcome.
