Branson, like the rest of the state, is hoping for another Super Bowl victory for the Kansas City Chiefs when they head into their third Super Bowl in as many years.
Several area residents shared their thoughts on the upcoming history-making game.
Said Cristi, "I have been a Chiefs fan all of my life, and I know that they have the ability to get the three-peat. This is so exciting to see history in the making. It is so much fun watching them play football and see how much fun they have. They win as a team and they seem to trust each other. Andy Reid is an amazing coach, and Patrick Mahomes is a gift from God and a wonderful leader. I pray for them to stay healthy so they can win!"
Connie shared, "I am so stoked for this year's Super Bowl. I remember the Chiefs winning Super Bowl IV. I endured all the good years, the mediocre years and the 'what the heck' years. I had given up on ever seeing them back in the Super Bowl. Then they played in Super Bowl LIV and won! After a 50- year drought. I was ecstatic, never dreaming what was ahead. Now, we are making history with my beloved Chiefs. First team in the Super Bowl era to win two straight and actually make it to the third for a real chance at winning a third one in a row! Unbelievable. I am so enjoying this time. To the Chiefs, I just want to say 'go get it, Boys!’ You've talked about this since you won last year. Go out there, pour it on, and play your best. We will enjoy celebrating your success!'"
Said Doug, "I am a Chiefs fan, in the good years and the bad. Looking forward to them making history with a win in this Sunday's game!"
"I'd like to see KC cash in for a third time," said Tim. "Mahomes is an outstanding player!"
"Three-peat, Chiefs, all the way," said Valerie.
Said A.J., "The Chiefs winning this year's Super Bowl would be a huge accomplishment. They haven't won easy this year, or dominated their competition."
"I hope the Chiefs win, and especially that no one gets hurt," noted Patti.
Said Gregg, "I am hoping for a win for the Chiefs this year. It is an exciting time to be a Chiefs fan, as we are a part of history. Three trips to the Super Bowl in a row. Now, we need that third win!"
Crystal is spending the week in New Orleans, enjoying the pre-Super Bowl activities. "As a lifelong Chiefs fan and season ticket holder, I am thrilled to witness a historic moment for the Chiefs. It is a miracle to make it back. We lucked into eight of our 16 wins this season. Two decades ago, we cheered the Chiefs when the record was 2-12. Now to be this close to a three-peat is crazy!"
"I am so excited to see the Chiefs pull off a three-peat," said former Branson Mayor Karen Best. "Having sponsored Chris Jones, Isiah Pacheco, Nick Bolton and Trent McDuffie and kids' sports camps in our area, I will be cheering these guys on loudly. So proud of the time they have invested in the youth of our community. Let's go, Chiefs!"
State Representative Brian Seitz shared, "The Kansas City Chiefs are on the cusp of accomplishing something that is truly historic. The old adage of 'you either die the hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain' certainly rings true, as many are rooting for the Chiefs to fail. NOT IN MISSOURI! I am excited to cheer on the Chiefs to their historic third Super Bowl victory in a row, and look forward to once again seeing the Lombardi Trophy in the Missouri Capitol later this year!"
