Chiefs announce ‘Chiefs Champions Tour’ celebrating Super Bowl LVII victory
If you thought the Kansas City Chiefs were done celebrating their Super Bowl LVII victory, guess again.
The team has been to the White House and had their Super Bowl LVII ring ceremony, but now they’re taking the show on the road to celebrate with their fans across the Midwest. On Wednesday, the club announced the “Chiefs Champions Tour.”
“We are thrilled to announce our Chiefs Champions Tour this summer,” Chiefs President Mark Donovan said, via press release. “With a global pandemic in 2020, we were not able to celebrate properly with Chiefs Kingdom after our Super Bowl LIV victory, so this tour has been something we have been looking forward to for the past couple of years.
