Missouri shows support for Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LVIII

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (KCTV) – Missouri will be shining bright to show support for the Kansas City Chiefs leading up to Super Bowl LVIII.

Governor Mike Parson issued an order to turn the dome at the Missouri State Capitol red and gold this weekend. The dome will glow in support of the Chiefs from Friday, February 9, through Sunday, February 11.

“On this Red Friday, the state of Missouri and fans all over Chiefs Kingdom are once again celebrating our Kansas City Chiefs making it to the Super Bowl,” Parson said. “As the 57th Governor of Missouri, we were fortunate enough to watch our Chiefs win Super Bowl 57, and we look forward to watching them run it back for a repeat at Super Bowl 58. We’re proud to call the Kansas City Chiefs Missouri’s team, and on behalf of the state of Missouri and all of Chiefs Kingdom.”

Governor and First Lady Parson also plan to meet with California Gavin Newsom and First Partner Jennifer Newsom in Las Vegas ahead of the Super Bowl LVIII. Each Governor plans to exchange gifts, including signed Super Bowl LVIII memorabilia, to be auctioned off to benefit charity.

The Parsons have been long-time Chiefs season ticket holders. The Governor’s office said the couple bought their own tickets to attend Super Bowl LVIII, and aside from the standard security detail state taxpayers are not footing the bill.
