DC politicians have friendly rivalry ahead of Super Bowl
WASHINGTON (Gray DC) – The trash talk has commenced with 49ers and Chiefs fans on Capitol Hill already at it before Super Bowl LVIII.
These days it’s rare for politicians to agree with someone in the opposing party but football has leader redrawing allegiances.
Vice President Kamala Harris told Washington Correspondent Rhyan Henson that she’s sticking to her Bay Area roots.
Rhyan: I know you are from the Bay Area,
Harris: From Oakland!
Rhyan: I know you are excited for the game, what are you thinking?
Harris: Go Niners
Rhyan: You Think they’ll get it done?
Harris: If history is any indication, well yeah.
Rhyan: They got Pat!
Harris: Well, no listen, I will tell you there’s some talent on the other side. We like a good competition. That’s why the Super Bowl is what it is. The Super Bowl, the best. They go at it, and we’ll see who wins.
Vice President Harris’s fellow Democrat Emanuel Cleaver from Kansas City normally agrees with her on issues but this Sunday he’s wearing a different shade of red.
“But even if the 49ers, if one of the players had a dream they beat the Chiefs, they should get up and find Andy Reid and apologize,” The Kansas City, Missouri Congressman said. Even if it was just a bad dream.”
Missouri Senator Josh Hawley, is a guy who rarely see’s eye to eye with any Democrat, but when it comes to the Chiefs, he agrees with his fellow Missourian.
“Patrick Mahomes is the best QB playing, maybe the best all time,” Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) said. “My friend, Harrison Butker obviously is playing great. Best kicker in the league. He’s in there in the clutch. I predict Chiefs by 10 points.”
Hawley said he hasn’t made any bets yet.
Congressman Cleaver says he’s wagering KC BBQ with California Congressman Ro Khanna.
The Game is Sunday night in Las Vegas.
