I was going to start this blog off with “times are tough for fans of the Kansas City Chiefs,” but lol no they aren’t. Your team just hosted its fourth consecutive AFC Championship game…you’ve won two of those, and you’ve gone on to win a Super Bowl. Patrick Mahomes was the MVP of the league in 2018, and as long as that man is standing, with the weapons around him, and that coaching staff in place, the Chiefs are going to be perennial Super Bowl contenders. Plus, just because times get tough, it doesn’t mean that people resort to eating their food with their bare hands. So, I don’t think that joke would’ve landed anyway. I’m glad I talked myself out of typing that.
Anyway, I’m here today to talk about this dude who was caught eating his steak with his bare hands during the AFC Championship last Sunday.

Personally, I love the move. I think this man is the only champion in Kansas City today, as a matter of fact. What are you supposed to do in that situation? The game is tight, it’s all on the line, and while that kind of seems like a really awkward time to go buy a steak, you’ve already done it and now you have to commit to it. The one thing you DON’T want to do in this situation is compromise the steak. So, you have to rise up, politely ask the woman with you to hold your beer, and you just chow down with your bare hands.
Being a fan takes grit sometimes. Again, I’m not trying to be overly critical of this man, but I don’t know why you go to a football game and order anything you have to eat with a fork and knife (just a fork is okay – like…a loaded baked potato or something that you can hold in one hand and fork away in the other….). You’re just asking for it. But, maybe this man has been there before. Maybe he’s well-trained and knows exactly what he’s doing. Props to him for developing the protocol and skillset required to handle this situation with such poise.
I do wonder, though…what’s the quality of a steak at a football stadium? It’s been awhile since I’ve been to a game, so I don’t know what these new menus are like, especially since Nissan Stadium switched out all their vendors. To me, you just don’t break the mold – nothing beats an ice cold DCL (delicious Coors Light) and a hot dog. But, maybe I’m missing out if the steak is so good that you have to have it, regardless of whether you end up eating it with your bare hands or not.
I firmly believe that this was the Chiefs’ Super Bowl this year – this dude, his steak, and his bare hands.
