"Fans of the Kansas City Chiefs..."
Goodell's voice, transmitted through the microphone to every corner of the U.S. Bank Stadium, also reached every corner covered by television screens.
"The trophy you have been eagerly waiting for is here, from the distant year of 1970 to the present of 2018. From the very first game of this regular season, you have been striving and fighting. You have interpreted the charm of football with your unparalleled performance and have stood at the pinnacle of the world with a historic posture."
"Now, you are the world champions!"
And then.
Goodell handed the trophy to Clark Hunt.
The moment Hunt held the Vince Lombardi Trophy aloft, red confetti rained down from the sky, and cheers and screams filled the whole stadium, as the entire U.S. Bank Stadium officially entered the Kansas City Chiefs era.
