The Kansas City Chiefs returned to the White House on Friday to celebrate their second straight Super Bowl victory, with a new gift for President Joe Biden in tow.

A year after gifting Biden a No. 46 Biden jersey, Chiefs owner Clark Hunt and head coach Andy Reid presented him with a Chiefs helmet, which the President soon attempted to don. He needed a couple tries after his sunglasses got in the way. The Chiefs were celebrating their third Super Bowl title in five years, having previously won it all in the 2019-20 season and last year. This was only the second time they visited the White House, however, as the COVID-19 pandemic prevented them from visiting President Donald Trump in 2020.

In last year’s visit, the highlight was star tight end Travis Kelce going rogue at the podium, with Patrick Mahomes stepping in to prevent him from getting more than a few words out. With Kelce’s profile raised even more since then via his relationship with pop star Taylor Swift, Biden opted to preemptively invite Kelce to take the podium.

“My fellow Americans, it’s nice to see you all yet again,” Kelce said. “I’m not going to lie, President Biden, they told me if I got up here I’d get tased, so I’m going to go back to my spot.”
