Newsflash: Kansas City Too Violent For Super Bowl Parade?!?

Here's the newspaper inventing some news that most locals understood around February of last year: 

KANSAS CITY CAN'T HAVE ANOTHER SUPER BOWL RALLY AFTER DEADLY GUNFIRE RUINED LAST YEAR'S EVENT!!!

Again . . .

Only those with an IQ slightly below room temperature will be surprised by this fact of life.

Still . . .

This an important moment wherein Mayor Q lowers expectations for a three-peat . . . Check-it:

"Local leaders and the Chiefs have been discussing whether to forgo another mass rally like the one last year where one woman was killed and more than 20 others wounded in a shooting melee. They are considering more manageable alternatives — if the Chiefs win another title. They open the playoffs Saturday against the Texans. Lucas confirmed that one option is that the parade would follow a ticketed kickoff rally — location not yet determined — that would feature remarks by the Chiefs and local dignitaries. A much smaller crowd would enter that venue through security checkpoints as fans do for any professional sporting event. The parade would begin afterwards, some blocks away, and there would be no ending ceremony."
