With the Lamar Hunt Trophy staying with the KC Chiefs for another year, team chairman and CEO Clark Hunt spoke about what this current run means to the family.

Two days before the biggest game of the Kansas City Chiefs’ season, the team’s chairman and chief executive, Clark Hunt, sat in the witness stand of a Brooklyn federal courthouse, some 1,200 miles away from Arrowhead Stadium, where he prepared to talk about a different kind of football.

Hunt was asked about pregame superstitions he might have, but he said those days are gone. But there is one sweet pregame tradition. It was started by his father, Lamar, who founded the Chiefs. Lamar Hunt, for whom the AFC Championship Game trophy is named, died in 2006.
