| How Many People Own The Kansas City Chiefs |
It's a Family Affair (Mostly)
Unlike your typical family gathering where everyone argues over who gets the wishbone, the Kansas City Chiefs are owned by the Hunt family. Yes, that's right, it's not a billionaire tech mogul or a consortium of fizzy drink tycoons. It's a family with a long history in the game.
Now, the Hunt family isn't exactly your average next-door neighbors. We're talking about the kind of family portrait where everyone looks vaguely annoyed at the photographer but secretly happy about the obscene amount of money they have. Lamar Hunt, the OG owner, was one of the founding members of the American Football League (that's the league the Chiefs were in before they became the NFL superstars we know today).
Tip: Focus on clarity, not speed.
These days, after some heartwarming (and possibly tearful) inheritance situations, the Chiefs are owned by Lamar Hunt's four adult children. So, there you have it - a team with a rich history, literally and figuratively, thanks to the Hunt fam.
But Wait, There's More! (Because Family Dramas Never Truly End)
While the Hunt family has the controlling stake, there's always a chance some minority owners are lurking in the shadows. These are folks who might own a smaller slice of the pie, but still get to enjoy the sweet taste of victory (and the profits, let's be honest). For the Chiefs, any potential minority owners are kept under wraps tighter than Andy Reid's secret playbook.
QuickTip: Stop to think as you go.
So, the official answer is the Hunt family, but the world of NFL ownership can be a bit of a secretive game.
How To Get Your Own Slice of the Chiefs Pie (Not Literally, Please)
Here's the not-so-shocking truth: owning a piece of an NFL team costs a small fortune. Like, enough money to buy a private island shaped like a football kind of fortune. But hey, if you're feeling ambitious (and have a Scrooge McDuck money vault somewhere), here are a few ideas (emphasis on IDEAS):
Tip: Read mindfully — avoid distractions.
 |
- Win the lottery (a lot).
- Invent a revolutionary new type of football that laces itself and never goes flat. (Patent it first!)
- Become best friends with Clark Hunt and convince him you're the missing piece the Chiefs need for ultimate domination. (Good luck with that one.)
