To paraphrase Travis Kelce and the Beastie Boys, the Kansas City Chiefs earned their right to party on Wednesday, when the team and their fans celebrated at their first Super Bowl victory parade in 50 years.
And despite temperatures in the 20s, the fans, players, coaches, staff and their families appeared to fully enjoy it.
Some of the highlights.
Police chase
Things started out somewhat ominously with a police chase on the parade route.

This guy says it's nearly 80 degrees inside this pod. This is how you wait for the parade. #ChiefsKingdomParade #chiefsparade #ChiefsKingdom pic.twitter.com/z6y8lbUvEY
