Star quarterback Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs made the most of his downtime as the NFL offseason comes to a close. Alongside his NFL peers, Mahomes attended the highly anticipated UFC 300 event, where former featherweight champion Max Holloway delivered a thunderous knockout victory.
But the excitement didn’t stop there for Mahomes. He had a surprise encounter with soccer legend Lionel Messi at Arrowhead Stadium. Representing Inter Miami, Messi played a pivotal role in securing a victory against Sporting Kansas City, a team in which Mahomes and his wife own stakes. The match was moved to Arrowhead Stadium to accommodate Messi’s star power.
The pulsating game saw Inter Miami claim a win, with goals from Messi and Luis Suarez. Despite Sporting’s efforts, they couldn’t salvage a draw. Chiefs head coach Andy Reid also added star power to the event by gracing it with his presence.
Mahomes’s weekend of relaxation and entertainment with the likes of Messi and the thrill of UFC 300 highlighted his downtime filled with camaraderie and extraordinary experiences.
