Open challenging is a great term in sports, especially before the match. Travis Kelce said something very special to Cincinnati’s Mayor publicly.
The mayor of Cincinnati, Aftab Pureval, angered some Kansas City Chiefs players by releasing a viral video before the AFC Championship Game between the Bengals and the Chiefs. Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City is referred to as “Burrowhead Stadium” in the video, and Pureval claims that star quarterback Joe Burrow took a paternity test to determine whether or not he is the biological father of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
Everyone knew that if the Bengals were defeated, this video would be shown again, and it was right.
Harrison Butker’s 45-yard field goal was the difference in the Chiefs’ 23-20 victory against the Bengals, and the team will now meet the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII.
Kansas City’s mayor tried to talk some smack to superstar tight end Travis Kelce, but Kelce was unable to return the favor. Kelce, holding the AFC Championship trophy, echoed a famous line from The Rock’s combat sports heyday 20 years ago: “know your call and shut your mouth, jabroni.”
GIVE @TKELCE THE MIC.

After the game, Kelce also said, “Burrowhead, my ass,” interrupting an encounter with Patrick Mahomes.
“Burrowhead, my ass!”

This power move was shown by Cincinnati’s mayor Aftab. Maybe, from this time he won’t do the same work again in his entire life as a mayor.
