It took workers at Miami International Airport about three attempts to get one of the rolling staircases that the Chiefs would use to deplane properly lined up with the front door of their chartered jet. The delay was brief, and coach Andy Reid and the rest of the Chiefs' delegation to make their way into the hangar for the short walk to waiting buses.
A handful of local politicians and officials were at the airport to greet the teams, as loud hip-hop music blared through the maintenance hangar that was being used for the arrivals. No players or coaches spoke to reporters inside the hangar. The first media session for the Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers -- who arrived a couple hours after the Chiefs did on Sunday -- is Monday night, when the NFL has Super Bowl Opening Night at Marlins Park.Even as football enters its biggest week, basketball was on the teams' minds.
A handful of volunteers greeted players, coaches and staff as they made their way down the stairs. Everyone was handed a floral baseball cap, and many players held their phones out to shoot video of the moment they arrived at the Super Bowl. A few of the 49ers danced once they deplaned, in time with the music coming from a nearby DJ. Even the flight attendants on the Chiefs' flight were celebrating the moment-- they gathered at the top of the stairs for a group photo once their passengers deplaned, and then a few of them pulled out their phones for some pictures of players as well.
Yes, this is worthy news... but of players arriving for a game. Don't worry about the genocide in Yemen, people uprising against US occupation in Iraq, protests in Colombia, Ecuador, Spain, France and a slew of others... this is better...
