KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs are no strangers to the AFC Championship Game, but in the past, they’ve all been at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.

The Chiefs took their game on the road, and for the fourth time in five seasons, the result was the same: a trip to the Super Bowl.

KSHB 41’s Abby Dodge spent Sunday afternoon with Chiefs fans in Johnny’s Tavern in Lee’s Summit.

“I don’t miss a game ever,” Jill said. “We’re going to the Super Bowl again. I can’t believe it.”

KSHB 41's Caitlin Knute checked in with Chiefs fans in Lenexa at Tanner's Bar and Grill.

“I think the Chiefs just came together as a team,” one fan told Knute.

Kansas City’s Power and Light District hosted a watch party for Sunday’s game. KSHB 41’s Megan Abundis caught up with Chiefs fans there right after the game.

“We’ve got two weeks to go, and we’ve got to get rested up,” one fan said. “We’re ready. I’m ready for some more Super Bowls.”

In the heart of Midtown KCMO, Leslie DelasBour spoke with a fan who has dreams of a parade in his future.

"Everybody gotta go through us to get anywhere, and I stand on that," said Larry Cunningham, enforcer of fan club Chiefs or Die.
