Patrick Mahomes became a two-time Super Bowl champion last night when the Kansas City Chiefs finished 38-35 against the Eagles. However, Mahomes needed all the luck and perseverance in the world to power through a high ankle sprain he picked up earlier in the season.
Patrick’s wife Brittany Matthews gave the quarterback one such lucky item to help him through the adversities. And it seems to have worked perfectly. The charm in this case? Red game-day underwear from Lululemon.

“If anyone in the world deserves it, he deserves it,” Brittany had once said way before Patrick won his two Lombardis and two Super Bowl MVPs. However, there is more than just Mahomes’ high football IQ and his lucky underwear.
Brittany, who is present at almost all Arrowhead games, supporting her husband all draped in Chiefs red, also has other game-day rules. Especially the away games. “Every away game that we’ve had right now, I’ve sat in seat number 15, which is his number,” she said. “Also I always put the Kansas City shirt on Steel [Mahomes’ dog].”

And with Patrick’s promise of a future dynasty at the end of the trophy celebration, Bronze won’t have to wait too long before getting his own Super Bowl experience.
