Bars host the kingdom outside of Kansas City

If you’ve been on Missouri State University’s campus recently, you’ve probably seen someone wearing Kansas City Chiefs gear. The Chiefs and their standout quarterback Patrick Mahomes II have taken the entire state of Missouri by storm — and that’s especially true for the city of Springfield.

College students, local residents and even those running some of the biggest bars in Springfield have been captivated by the Chiefs’ recent success.

Junior journalism major Trevor Hahn watches almost every Chiefs game with his fraternity brothers at Phi Gamma Delta.

“Normally, for big sporting events, a lot of people want to watch,” Hahn said.
