Of course, mayor Lucas is all-in on a Chiefs win Sunday.

Lucas explained what was on the line this weekend in a call to Cincinnati's mayor on Thursday.

"Arthur Bryant's barbecue will go to mayor Pureval of Cincinnati,” Lucas said.

There was no shortage of pre-game hype talk. A little bit of Charlie Hustle KC gear as well. The mayor says it's about more than just a bet, it's about getting behind the team.

"You all might have seen this clip. Their mayor said something about Burrow-head stadium, and the funny thing about Cincinnati is I don't think Cincinnati had fans before 2020,” Lucas said.

It's been a rough go for the chiefs, though, losing their last three to the Bengals. The mayor also used the bet to send a message to Jeff City.

"I hope in the future Missourians have every right to do everything that any Kansan has to do, and that would include being able to bet on games like this," Lucas said.

That comment was almost certainly regarding Missouri’s lagging effort to legalize sports betting.

The mayor says he's had a pretty good run when it comes to championships and the Chiefs in Kansas City. He says he's not surprised they've been to five straight AFC Championships. He is also happy that the game is played locally.

"As compared to having it been played in Atlanta, we estimate that it will be about $15 million of revenue earned right here in Kansas City," Lucas said.

The mayor of Cincinnati has yet to offer up what they'll give for their side of the bet. Lucas is hoping it's not Cincinnati chili.

"I got a sensitive stomach, so I don't think I can handle it,” Lucas said.

Mayor Lucas says San Francisco’s mayor finally treated him to dinner after winning the Chiefs super bowl bet from a couple of years ago.
