Twitter captures some of Chiefs Super Bowl parade’s best moments
By Matt Conner
Check out some of the finest moments from today’s Chiefs Kingdom Champions Parade.
It’s the day that every player dreams of having through all of the years of playing and preparation. The Chiefs Kingdom Champions Parade was scheduled for Wednesday, February 15 and it seems like nearly all of Kansas City and then some came out to support them by hanging out along the parade route to get a glimpse.
For a solid 90+ minutes, the Chiefs slowly made their way along the route in slickly wrapped buses that celebrates the team’s Super Bowl win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Each bus brought a different positional unit along the route, which meant that fans could cheer for and appreciate each segment of the roster one at a time. It was a very cool way of giving everyone in the organization a moment with Chiefs Kingdom.
In case you weren’t able to make the parade or even watch a live broadcast of it, we’ve got some of the finest moments captured on Twitter below.
From the beginning, it was an extra special day for two players who not only had a Super Bowl victory to celebrate but blew out some candles as well.

Chiefs players were decked out in all things Oakley, certainly courtesy of Patrick Mahomes, but some players had some extra flair on their outfits to watch.

His time in K.C. *might* be limited at this point, but we love seeing EB enjoying this moment if his run with the organization is over.

Some things posted about the parade weren’t things that happened but were worth laughing at nonetheless.
