Quinton Lucas, Eric Stonestreet, other Chiefs fans loved Saturday’s Super Bowl replay
The arrival of the “murder hornet” in the United States led to the insect’s name being widely shared Saturday on Twitter.
By Saturday night, another insect was trending: wasp.
Of course, this one had less to do with the nature and everything to do with Fox airing a replay of Super Bowl LIV. The Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers 31-20 despite trailing by 10 midway through the fourth quarter.
The rally started with the Chiefs running “2-3 Jet Chip Wasp,” and when that moment arrived during the broadcast, Chiefs fans everywhere asked the same question on Twitter. It’s one Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes uttered three months earlier: “Do we have time to run Wasp?”
As we all know now, the Chiefs did have time to run Wasp, as Mahomes completed a 44-yard pass to Tyreek Hill on a third-and-15 play, and the Chiefs overwhelmed the 49ers after that.
Saturday night’s broadcast of the game was shown around the nation, and Chiefs fans everywhere were watching.
That included actor/Kansas City, Kansas native Eric Stonestreet, former Missouri secretary of state Jason Kander, “Good Morning Football” co-host Peter Schrager and even a few forlorn 49ers fans.
There is no need to share what San Francisco fans were saying because they’ve suffered enough, right? But this is what Chiefs Kingdom was saying, starting with Stonesteet:
