WATCH: Chiefs unveil Super Bowl LVII banner at Arrowhead Stadium

The Kansas City #Chiefs unveiled their Super Bowl LVII banner just before their matchup against the #Lions kicked off on Thursday.

The Kansas City Chiefs unveiled their new Super Bowl LVII banner at Arrowhead Stadium on Thursday night as they celebrated their most recent championship ahead of a Week 1 matchup against the Detroit Lions.

Chiefs chairman and CEO Clark Hunt led the packed stadium in a countdown before the covering was loosed to reveal the slick banner that will sit above the press box until the team wins its next Super Bowl.

“We could not have done it without the best fans in the National Football League,” Hunt said before the unveiling.

This banner represents an exceptional achievement by Kansas City, which won its second championship of the Patrick Mahomes era back in February. Banner nights like the one the Chiefs enjoyed on Thursday are a rare occasion, and fans would certainly be pleased to get a chance to participate in another celebration next season.

The team’s road to championship defense starts tonight, and with some luck, Kansas Citians may get their wish next September.
