So, How Many Chiefs Fans Met Their Ancestors That Day?
Thankfully, the body count wasn't as high as a cheerleader's ponytail. One person, a beloved local radio DJ named Lisa Lopez-Galvan, tragically lost her life. However, the celebratory parade did take a turn for the wounded, with a whopping 33 people getting peppered with lead (not exactly the confetti they were hoping for). Eight of those folks were just kiddos, which put a real damper on the whole "parade" vibe.
Tip: Take notes for easier recall later.
But why all the ruckus? Well, it turns out some party crashers decided a parade celebrating victory wasn't celebratory enough without a little pew-pew action. Three knuckleheads have been charged with the whole mess, so hopefully, justice will be served colder than a beer koozie at a Chiefs game.
QuickTip: Slow scrolling helps comprehension.
The Moral of the Story?
Sometimes parades take a wrong turn, but that doesn't mean we can't celebrate safely! Leave the firearms at home folks, and pack your cheering lungs and dancing shoes instead.
Tip: A slow skim is better than a rushed read.
