There was a lot of celebrating this past weekend between Father’s Day and Juneteenth holidays, but one member of the Kansas City Chiefs celebrated a day named after him.
Chiefs rookie RB Isiah “Pop” Pacheco returned to his hometown of Vineland, New Jersey where he was honored by his peers and community members. The Vineland South High School standout was the subject of a parade that began at his old stomping grounds of Gittone Stadium and ended at Vineland City Hall, where Pacheco received the key to the city. Vineland South also seemingly honored him with an award and retired his No. 1 jersey.
