At least one place in the metro was jubilant with each and every Chiefs misstep Sunday night.

Callahan's in Lenexa is home to KCSFC, the Kansas City Steelers Fan Club.

"I'm a transplant. Been in Kansas City 8 years but been a Steelers fan for about 20," said one fan.

"Been a Steelers fan since January of 1992," said Bill Robertson. "Living here always."

Callahan's received vandalism threats this week after, what the owner says, was inaccurate information about a cover charge.

KCSFC ask for a $5 donation, not a charge, from anyone who comes to Callahan's who isn't a KCSFC member, including non-member Steelers fans.

Proceeds from this year's watch parties go to the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation KC, not KCSFC or Callahan's, whose owner is a Chiefs fan.
