celeb chiefs fans

So when it's Super Bowl time, celebrity NFL fans come out of the woodwork. Jon Hamm for the Cardinals, Seth Meyers for the Steelers.

So who are the fans of the Kansas City Chiefs who are just dying for them to make it to the Super Bowl (XLV in Dallas--put it on the board!)

This list starts with Paul Rudd. He was raised in Overland Park, Kansas City, went to high school there, and even went to KU. He narrated the Chiefs episodes of Hard Knocks on HBO in 2007.

Here's a good Paul Rudd clip:



Next up, Jason Sudeikis from SNL. He also grew up in Overland Park, attending two Kansas City high schools. I don't know for a fact that he's a Chiefs fan, but he played basketball in high school and was in the improv troupe ComedySports. Ergo, he likes sports and would have been 14 at the beginning of the Derrick Thomas-era playoff run.



Eddie Griffin grew up in Kansas City and was voted class clown three years running at a KC high school...
"Eddie then worked as a choreographer for a dance crew that performed half-time shows for the Kansas City Chiefs. One night at a Denny's in Kansas City, a couple people told him he needed to come to their comedy club and perform. He was originally supposed to be on stage for 3 minutes, but instead performed off-the-cuff for 45 minutes successfully."

So I'm going to assume he's a fan of the Chiefs too.

And Don Cheadle was born in KC, but didn't grow up there. So he probably doesn't count.

And that's it. Now how can I get Paul Rudd to come over and watch a game with me?
