Aftab Pureval’s proclamation did not go over well in Kansas City.
Cincinnati mayor Aftab Pureval made waves on Friday by declaring an official proclamation that took multiple shots at the Chiefs, the city of Kansas City and Patrick Mahomes. Among them, he called the Chiefs home stadium “Burrowhead Stadium,” called Kansas City “weird” for not being located in Kansas and asked for a paternity test to see if Joe Burrow is, in fact, Patrick Mahomes’ father.

The Bengals are in their second straight AFC championship game following a lengthy drought.
The Bengals snapped a 32-year AFC championship game drought with their appearance last year, and they followed that up by preventing another drought and making back-to-back conference finals. That coincides with the acquisition of quarterback Joe Burrow, who has now made two AFC championship games in his first three years in the NFL.
In just two years, Cincinnati has gone from a team that couldn’t win a playoff game to a team that expects to win the Super Bowl, largely thanks to Burrow.
