TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Chiefs fan gives Eagles fan a kidney earning them both a trip to Super Bowl

Unless you’re a billionaire, the Super Bowl is one of the hardest tickets to get. That’s why sometimes it’s take a miraculous situation to find your way to the big game. As these two friends found out.

There is a Kansas City Chiefs fan who gave a kidney to a Philadelphia Eagles fan. Their story is incredible and it has lead to them both going to the Super Bowl together this weekend. 

They met in the Marines over 20 years ago and have kept in touch ever since. 3 years ago in 2020 was when the kidney surgery happened. Both teams heard about the story and reaching out to invite the two guys to the game on Sunday.

No matter who wins the football game, they’ve both won the game of life.

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: When did the “Gatorade bath” tradition start in football?

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: When did the “Gatorade bath” tradition start in football?

Heading into Super Bowl Weekend one of the most known traditions is the winning team dumping the cooler of Gatorade onto the head coach. But when and how did this crazy tradition start?

It actually began right here in the Tri-state! The “Gatorade shower” was first done back in 1984, when New York Giants player Jim Burt decided to drench head coach Bill Parcells with the Gatorade cooler.

After that it became a team tradition where they would get Parcells with Gatorade showers every time they had a big win. After the Giants’ big Super Bowl win in 1986 other teams started to do it too and it stuck ever since.
