In the Springs? I had part of my bachelor party in the second floor of that place which I remember to varying degrees.
I remember the Mane talking trash and one user who had a lot of clout said. “I think we are fooling ourselves and this kid is going to be a pain in the ass for a long time.”
My co-workers made fun of Mahomes interceptions in the next pre-season. The day after the left handed pass was like a day of sorrow and mourning in my entire teacher’s lounge. A co-worker about 40 years my senior said “I worry the Chiefs have their Elway and I have a bad feeling about the next 15 years.” He said he never thought the Chiefs would ever find a franchise guy until that comeback.
Now when I wear my KC gear I don’t even get trash talk. No boos from students. Nothing but a solemn acknowledgement and resignation. KC has not lost to Denver since I moved to Colorado. Whenever they do I know I will pay dearly, but for now I’m going to savor it.
