- Chiefs publish 'Merry Mischchief' claymation for 2025 holidays; Donna Kelce narrates
- 'Kelce on the Shelfie' elf sparks hijinks at GEHA Field and rallies the team
- Chiefs pursue annual Christmas Day games and holiday traditions to unite fans
Following their win in Pittsburgh last Christmas, the Chiefs got a visit from Santa Claus in their locker room. And he brought an elf with him.
Father Christmas was actually coach Andy Reid, while Chris Shropshire, an assistant equipment manager, was dressed as the elf. It was a fun moment.
The Chiefs also released a Christmas-themed claymation video last December, and they’re doing it again this year. And this edition has an elf, too.
Here is a description of the video, which is called “Merry Mischief,” from the Chiefs:
“This heartwarming and playful short follows the adventures of an Elf on the Shelf — cleverly named ‘Kelce on the Shelfie’ — which finds itself ‘home alone’ at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium while the team is away. Through ‘Kelce on the Shelfie’s’ mischief and hijinks, the magical Elf ultimately rallies the team and Chiefs Kingdom, just in time for the Christmas Day game against the Denver Broncos.”
For the second straight season, the Chiefs are playing on Christmas Day. They hope doing so becomes an annual tradition.
“Merry Mischief” is narrated by Donna Kelce, the mother of Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. Here is the video.
“The holidays have always been about bringing people together, and there’s nothing quite like the energy in Chiefs Kingdom this time of year,” Chiefs president Mark Donovan said in a news release. “Christmas gives us a unique opportunity to unite our fans, celebrate our community, and create moments that last forever. With ‘Merry Mischief’ and a full month of holiday fun, we’re embracing everything that makes this team and this city so special.”
