Patrick Mahomes has been amazing on the football field since his time growing up in Whitehouse, Texas. But beyond being a star athlete from everyone you meet, they will tell you that Patrick hasn’t changed, and he is still a kind person.  

Which is why I love to highlight things like this where Patrick did something that made one fan from here in East Texas feel like a million bucks.  

East Texas Family Traveled to Kansas City to See Patrick Play 

The Kansas City Chiefs were playing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this past weekend and Mandy Milam Harris and her son Josiah were able to make the trip to Kansas City to see the game. Josiah even made a sign that said, “15-Mahomes Your #1 Fan from Bullard, TX.”

Like so many kids who go to a sporting event Josiah wanted to say hi to Patrick, but knew the chances were not great. But he kept his hope alive. 

After the Game Patrick Mahomes Made Dreams Come True 

As Patrick was getting ready to leave the field he gave a few things to fans such as sweat bands, and Josiah was one of those kids! As you would imagine Josiah LOST HIS MIND with excitement. 

If I’m hearing it correctly, I think Patrick says, “Bullard, Texas.” as he handed the sweatband to Josiah. Here is the video so you can see for yourself. 

It’s just so cool to see star athletes taking care of young fans, especially ones that travel hundreds of miles to see them. Sometimes it doesn’t happen for one reason or another, but when you see a video of a kid so excited, it makes you love that athlete even more for making the special moment happen.

A Look Back at Patrick Mahomes' Past

Mahomes is most well known as the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, but in high school, he played more than just football.
