Like many BYU road games, the stands at Kansas’ David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium were filled with lots of Cougar blue despite, including that of @jasonpbyu on X, formerly known as Twitter, and his family.
Andy Reid
On September 24, @jasonpbyu shared photos of himself and his sons outside of Arrowhead Stadium with a pair of signs. One sign paid homage to former BYU player and current Chiefs head coach Andy Reid, who currently stars in a State Farm commercial alongside Mahomes.
The other sign detailed a checklist of the family’s football-filled weekend with the following items:
- Flight from Lubbock (Texas) to Kansas City
- Watch BYU vs. Kansas
- Come to Chiefs Game
- Meet Patrick Mahomes
Before kickoff, the first three items had checkmarks next to them as completed.
