It's funny, I've been to Syracuse several times over the years (wife's family is from there), including this past Christmas. Even though it's only a couple of hours from Buffalo, I have yet to see anybody wearing Bills gear there. Just Orangeman stuff. Everywhere. And nothing else.

Probably a bunch of hockey and lacrosse fans. It's like football in Oklahoma and Texas to those guys.

Well, we look a hell of a lot better than Green Bay, so there's that!

I’ve done a little traveling over the past couple of weeks to South Florida and Colorado. I’ve been wearing Chief’s gear in airports and been getting a lot of “Go Chiefs” from random people, most of which are fans of other teams.

I imagine the Pat fans received the same prior to their first super bowl upset of the Rams....

I've been in NETX for 25 years, surrounded by Dallas and NO fans. They know how much this team means to me, and everyone has been pretty cool this season. They are all pulling for a KC NO Super Bowl.

99% Bronco fans here in We Neb. Most are saying the Chiefs are going to lose. Some friends that are Bronco fans are pulling for the Chiefs and are saying "Bout time."

Get ready - if we win the SB this year we're gonna be the new Pats before we know it. Loved by bandwagon fans and despised by real fans across the AFC. Heh

Also the AFC West and therefore HFA looks imminently winnable for the next few years. Fans are just going to start throwing up their hands when the AFC playoffs comes through Mahomes in KC every year.

I live in Honolulu, but work on a military base so I talk to people from all over the country all the time, fans of all different teams. Outside the AFC-W it seems most people I talk to have a positive view of the Chiefs. They love Mahomes. I've been hearing all year from people that they want the Chiefs to do well. Especially this game of course, because everyone hates the Pats, but even before. I think KC is a team that is easy to like for most, nothing offensive, no reason to hate. Saw the same when the Royals won the WS.

I wear a Chiefs lanyard so I get a lot of comments from people, but 90% are very positive.

Bet you interviewed them

One of my co workers here in Southern Indiana is a lifelong, die hard Chiefs fan. He’s going to the game on Sunday.

I’d say 95 percent of the other people I’ve encountered are rooting for the Chiefs. I’ve seen one or two pats hats but very few and far between.

I think almost everyone outside of New England will be Chiefs fans on Sunday.

I'm flying into N'Awlins Tuesday and will be spending a week in the area,should be a lot of fun especially if our two teams are in the SB.

Frazod 01-18-2019 07:52 AM

Just had a Packer fan wish me luck.

I live in SW Florida and everyone is pulling for the Chiefs...mostly because they can't stand the thought of another SB with the Patriots. Tons of respect for Mahomes. I have side bets with a couple of Patriot fan retirees and looking forward to collecting a nice dinner and some moola. I was at the Monday night game in 2014, the last time the Patriots played at Arrowhead and lost 41 - 14. They sat Brady at the end of that game. Funny how the media hasn't really touched on that but I'm hoping that it rattles Brady's smug confidence!

It's all quite a new experience for me

Yep, lots of emails and FB messages to that end. I didn't realize how much hate there was for the Patriots, even from NFC fans.

Don't be dissing Bono and Grbac. :D
