Super Chiefs

Lamar Hunt's pro football franchise from the "Mickey Mouse" league reached its pinnacle on a January Sunday in New Orleans-his Chiefs defeated the NFL's Minnesota Vikings to become Super Bowl champions. It was the defining moment for the American Football League's best team. SUPER CHIEFS is a collection of narratives, anecdotes, and stories from the Kansas City Chiefs glorious decade (1960-69) in the AFL. The Chiefs won more games than any other team in the league, captured three AFL championships, and placed seven players on the All-Time AFL team. It wasn't easy. Fighting through a change of cities, various setbacks, and tragedies, the Chiefs also recorded many triumphs as they rose to the top of the pro football world.
