It appears that some Chiefs fans didn’t enjoy Patrick Mahomes’ drinking while celebrating the team’s big win.
Last week, Mahomes and several Chiefs players were seen getting tipsy during the team’s Super Bowl parade in Kansas City.

On Sunday, the KC star published letters from angry Chiefs fans who were disappointed to see Mahomes drinking in public.
These letter writers are big fans, but they were big disappointed to see the team openly drinking booze again at this year’s Super Bowl parade. https://t.co/bqJdrp8QPM

Here’s what one fan wrote.
Via KC Star
I am not opposed to drinking nor naive enough to think our football players don’t drink. However, it is completely unnecessary to let Chiefs players drink during the Super Bowl parade. It should not have been allowed by coach Andy Reid and the team’s ownership for some very good reasons.
The main reason is that a drinking Chief is not a good role model for young fans who are there to see their heroes. Second, even the adult fans don’t want to see drunken players at this important celebration. Third, tragic things happen when drinking is involved.
And what another wrote.
Big kudos on a big second half last Sunday, Kansas City Chiefs. While viewing your parade on Wednesday, however, I was surprised and dismayed to see that Patrick Mahomes and other players were drinking alcohol again.
I felt that way three years ago, and I thought there would have been enough negative feedback from the parents of children and teenagers voicing their concerns to the Chiefs’ administration that it wouldn’t be repeated.
Next time there’s a victory parade, please imbibe your alcohol privately and discreetly. Impressionable young people deserve better role models than what you’ve displayed twice.
People were angry at the KC Star for posting the letters from disgruntled Chiefs fans about Mahomes’ drinking.
😂😂 The KC star is a joke. Imagine constantly alienating as many people as possible in your own area. This is embarrassing. https://t.co/r2gMRrG4si

Those fans sound like they are fun at parties. Relax. Players deserve to have fun. How about you all go train and sacrifice your body for a whole season? See how you celebrate at the end of a successful season. https://t.co/kX8ZqzENAW
