KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Celebrations of the Kansas City Chiefs' Super Bowl run are traveling to Jefferson City, Missouri.

Thursday, Missouri Gov. Mike Parson ordered the Capitol dome to shine red to celebrate the Chiefs' second consecutive Super Bowl run.

Beginning Friday, the dome will be lit red at sunset until Monday, Feb. 8.

“We couldn’t be more excited for the Chiefs to return to the Super Bowl, especially after a challenging year for our state,” Parson said. “The Chiefs have played an important role not just in Kansas City and Missouri but throughout the history of football. Our sports teams unite us as fans and provide an outlet of relief during times of struggle, and we are proud to have the Chiefs represent the great state of Missouri at the Super Bowl once again.”
