Forget the calendar!
This is Red Thursday!
The Kansas City Chiefs meet the Denver Broncos this evening, but the game day fun started early all over town, including the McDonald's on Rainbow Blvd.
KC Wolf and the Chiefs Cheerleaders kept the place buzzing, but it was more than breakfast being carried out by fans.
The next banner in the Chiefs Flag Collectors Series was also going like - well - hotcakes.
For a $5 bill, citizens of Chiefs Kingdom can fly their enthusiastic support all over town and help children and families from all over the Midwest.
All the money from flag sales stays in town to support Ronald McDonald House Charities.

Tami Greenberg, CEO of the charities, says it is a trifecta of goodness: Charity! Chiefs! Children!
Chiefs CEO Clark Hunt was also there to pump up the excitement and talk about his family’s long legacy of service to Kansas City.
It was a perfect early start to the Chiefs’ home season.
It would be many hours to see if there’s a perfect finish.
