Should Kansas City Chiefs fans be scared of the postseason monkey?

January 8th, 1994. Nearly 25 years ago. The crowd of raucous Kansas City Chiefs fans at Arrowhead Stadium erupts as Chiefs kicker Nick Lowry sends a 32-yard field goal through the uprights in overtime to win the game against the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 1993 AFC Wild Card game.

Fast forward another 8 days, January 16th, 1994. Chiefs running back Marcus Allen sealed the game with a 21-yard rushing touchdown to beat the Houston Oilers, 28-20 in the AFC Divisional Round. The Chiefs would go on to lose in the AFC Championship against the Buffalo Bills, which started a new NFL record—not the good kind.
