==Support== AFL Hall of Fame coach [[Hank Stram]] supported the idea and used the patch as a motivating factor for his team. Stram was later [http://www.superbowl.com/features/insider/chiefs quoted] as saying ''"You could not believe it when you saw the faces of the players. These were great men, and great pros, but they were like kids in a candy shop when they saw that patch."'' Years later, Chiefs linebacker [[Willie Lanier]] [http://www.superbowl.com/features/insider/chiefs remarked] ''"It lit us up. We knew what it meant."'' Wearing the AFL patch, the Chiefs went out and defeated the Vikings 23β7. The AFL-NFL Championship Game's final record was NFL 2, [[American Football League|AFL]] 2, showing that the upstart American Football League could capably compete with the established NFL.
