    The Kansas City Chiefs, a professional American football team based in Kansas City, Missouri, are named after the former Mayor of Kansas City, H. Roe Bartle, who was known as “The Chief.” Bartle played a crucial role in bringing the team to Kansas City in the early 1960s and was instrumental in the development of the city’s sports culture.

    The team was originally known as the Dallas Texans when it was founded in 1960 as a charter member of the American Football League (AFL). After relocating to Kansas City in 1963, the team’s name was changed to the Kansas City Chiefs to honor Mayor Bartle’s contributions and to reflect the city’s connection to Native American heritage and culture.
