Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas hopes for a Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding at Arrowhead Stadium

Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas hopes for a Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding at Arrowhead Stadium | @EdEastonJr

On Friday, CNN News Central anchors John Berman, Kate Bolduan, and Sara Sidner interviewed Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas. During the conversation, Lucas teased a Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding at Arrowhead Stadium following a potential Kansas City Chiefs victory in Super Bowl LIX.

“You know, I am excited to officiate the wedding,” said Lucas. “That would be the biggest job I could ever have. People would be like, forget being mayor; you’re the officiant for Travis and Taylor. It would be a bigger wedding than Princess Diana and Prince Charles; it would be huge.”

No engagement announcements have been made regarding the couple, but it has become a betting option for many Super Bowl LIX wagers.

“You know, what we will probably do differently, I think the most Kansas City special thing to be could be the on-field proposal that you discussed before, Travis and Taylor, and then a wedding at Arrowhead Stadium,” said Lucas. “It’s like a Hallmark movie on steroids. Hallmark, by the way, based in Kansas City. So it would be like everything we’ve worked on for 150 years, all coming together in KC. So hopefully, we get to come back and do that in a few weeks.”

The Chiefs were featured in a recent Hallmark movie surrounding the team and love, so nothing is out of the realm of possibility.

Royals players visit Arrowhead Stadium ahead of AFC Championship Game

See which #Royals players visited Arrowhead Stadium this week ahead of the #Chiefs’ matchup against the #Bills in the AFC Championship Game.

The excitement surrounding the Kansas City Chiefs’ AFC Championship Game matchup against the Buffalo Bills is reaching its fever-pitch and officially has made its way from Arrowhead Stadium to the other side of the Truman Sports Complex at Kauffman Stadium.

On Thursday, a group of Royals prospects paid a visit to the home of the defending Super Bowl champions ahead of the Chiefs’ playoff matchup against Buffalo.

Among the visitors was Royals standout Jac Caglianone, who was a first-round pick in the 2024 MLB draft, who joined a few of his teammates for a tour of Arrowhead before the start of Spring Training in Surprise, Arizona.

Take a look at this video of their visit, which was posted by the Royals’ official player development account on Twitter:

The Chiefs have an exceptional relationship with their neighbors across the parking lot at Truman Sports Complex and are sure to be cheered on by the 2015 World Series Champions when they face the Bills on Sunday.

Chiefs to host Bills in AFC Championship Game at Arrowhead Stadium

The Kansas City #Chiefs will host the Buffalo #Bills at Arrowhead Stadium in the AFC Championship Game on January 26.

The Kansas City Chiefs are set to face off against the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship Game next week after the New York-based franchise defeated the Baltimore Ravens in a divisional-round playoff matchup on Sunday.

The Bills, who defeated the Chiefs in the regular season, are led by star quarterback Josh Allen and have developed an extensive playoff rivalry against Kansas City in recent seasons.

Allen threw for 127 yards in Buffalo’s win over Baltimore and has proven to be one of the NFL’s most exciting quarterbacks.

However, Allen’s playoff record against the Chiefs has been less-than-stellar.

He is 0-3 against Kansas City in his postseason career and has yet to appear in a Super Bowl.

The AFC Championship Game will be played at Arrowhead Stadium and should prove to be an exciting matchup between two teams that are intimately familiar with each other.

Expect the Chiefs to do their best to avenge Kansas City’s regular-season loss to the Bills.

The Kansas City Chiefs are set to host the Houston Texans for a divisional-round playoff matchup at Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday, January 18.

Though the Chiefs have played many games at Arrowhead over the last few months, the opportunity to host a playoff contest only comes once in a blue moon.

Kansas City’s grounds crew has been hard at work prepping the field at Arrowhead Stadium for the Chiefs’ postseason showdown against Houston.

Take a look at this video of Kansas City’s turf-masters painting the field and ensuring that Arrowhead looks its best for the Chiefs’ pivotal playoff game on Saturday:

Fans don’t often get to see this aspect of a team’s preparation for a game, but the craftsmanship involved in maintaining a grass field through the brutal cold of a Western Missouri winter should never be discounted.

Expect Arrowhead to look great this weekend when Kansas City takes on Houston.

Chiefs Dave Toub details kicking in potentially cold weather on Saturday: ‘Advantage for us’

Kansas City #Chiefs Dave Toub details kicking in potentially cold weather on Saturday: ‘Advantage for us’ | @EdEastonJr

The Kansas City Chiefs will host the Houston Texans to start their postseason with freezing temperatures forecasted for the game. Chiefs special teams coordinator Dave Toub addressed the weather concerns during Wednesday’s press conference.

“We’ve had a lot of weather games, and we do certain things, as far as, if it’s gusty, we hold it and hold the snap,” said Toub. “There’s all different things you can do, but we have a lot of experience kicking in cold weather, so we feel like that’s an advantage for us.”

The Weather forecast at Arrowhead Stadium for Saturday’s playoff game is for a high of 26 degrees and a low of seven degrees, with overcast, clear conditions. The Chiefs are no strangers to playing in ice-cold conditions, as Toub further described his mindset for the kicking team.

“If you’re sitting in the stadium and you see the flags, and I don’t want to give away air secrets,” said Toub. “but if you see the flags blowing one way, it’s going to be opposite on the field, because the wind comes down and hits on the side of the stadium, and it blows back across. So it’s the opposite of what you see with the flags. It’s kind of different.”

Harrison Butker has played many games in poor weather conditions, so that experience will benefit Kansas City.

Arrowhead Stadium to host 2025 matchup between Nebraska, Cincinnati

Arrowhead Stadium is set to host a college football matchup between the Nebraska #Cornhuskers and the Cincinnati #Bearcats in 2025.

The Kansas City Chiefs have been the primary occupant of Arrowhead Stadium since its opening in 1972, but the venerable venue is no stranger to hosting other teams.

During the 2024 college football season, the Kansas Jayhawks were welcomed to Arrowhead Stadium for four home games while renovations were underway at David Booth Memorial Stadium in Lawrence.

Arrowhead Stadium also hosted a legendary rivalry game between the Jayhawks and Missouri Tigers in 2007 and served as the home of the Kansas City Wizards.

On Monday, it was announced that GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium would host a matchup between the University of Nebraska Cornhuskers and the University of Cincinnati Bearcats on Thursday, August 28, 2025.

Arrowhead made for a marvelous venue during Kansas’ home games in 2024 without impacting field conditions to the extent that it hindered the Chiefs’ ability to play on Sundays.

Stay tuned to see if any more college games get added to the schedule at Arrowhead Stadium in the coming weeks and months.

Huskers to open 2025 season at Arrowhead Stadium

Nebraska will open the 2025 season at an NFL stadium.

Nebraska Football will face the Cincinnati Bearcats on Thursday, August 28, 2025, at Geha Field at Arrowhead Stadium. The kickoff time and television network will be announced in the spring when the Big 12 has its television selection process.

Nebraska’s season opener has undergone some venue changes over the last couple of weeks. It was originally set for the Cincinnati campus, before moving to Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Now, Kansas City looks to be the destination.

The Huskers currently have the only win in the series between these two teams. That game took place on November 29, 1906. Nebraska shut out Cincinnati by a 41-0 margin that day.

The Huskers will be looking to build off a bowl game appearance to end the 2024 season. Cincinnati will be looking to start fresh, after finishing 5-7 in 2024.

This game should provide plenty of intrigue for Huskers fans, as it takes place at a premier venue in the Midwest. One thing is for sure: Nebraska fans will travel well.

Kansas Jayhawks RB earns awards after standout performance vs. Deion Sanders’ Colorado Buffaloes

Kansas #Jayhawks RB Devin Neal earned awards for his standout performance against ‘Coach Prime’ and the Colorado #Buffaloes.

The Kansas City Chiefs are fresh off a win against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, but while the defending champions were in Charlotte, the Kansas Jayhawks took their place at Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday.

The Jayhawks are currently in the middle of a major renovation to the David Booth Memorial Stadium in Lawrence, and with construction well underway, the Chiefs were kind enough to let Kansas use its Arrowhead for a few of its home games.

Though head coach Lance Leipold’s team has underperformed this season, a few Jayhawk standouts have given the Kansas faithful hope in recent weeks, including dynamic running back Devin Neal.

Neal had a huge performance for the Jayhawks on Saturday, totaling 287 yards and four touchdowns against ‘Coach Prime’ and the No. 16 Colorado Buffaloes.

The elusive back was rightfully recognized on Monday for his performance, receiving AP Offensive Player of the Week and Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week, among other awards.

Though Kansas’ season will come to an end soon, expect to see lots of hype around Neal as draft boards begin to take shape.
