The Kansas City Chiefs are mourning the loss of Norma Hunt, widow of team founder Lamar Hunt and mother to team CEO and Chairman Clark Hunt.
Norma Hunt was an excellent ambassador for the team and the game of football for half a century. She was the only woman on record to attend all 57 Super Bowls. She leaves behind an incredible legacy, including The Norma Hunt Training Camp Fellowship, which has provided a number of opportunities for women to get their start in the NFL.
Current and former members of the Chiefs’ organization took to social media to send messages of condolences and share heartfelt words to let the NFL world know exactly the type of person she was:
