The NFL brings together various types of fans. From small children who will probably not remember a game 20 years later to 100-year-old fans who can’t stop talking about a particular game that highlighted their youth. There is no telling the type of fans that adore the NFL teams.

With this year’s Super Bowl starting, some of the biggest names on the NFL are the Chiefs and Buccaneers. The two teams have a large following, which also contributes to celebrities. Let take a look at who has the better celebrity fans between Chiefs and Buccaneers.

Which team has more Super Bowl championships

The Chiefs and Buccaneers have gone head-to-head five teams in the last two decades. On February 7, the two groups are scheduled to play against each other for the second time in one season for the Super Bowl 55. Although the Chiefs won Week 12 at Raymond James Stadium, the Buccaneers hold some edge over them in the head-to-head series.

The all-time head-to-head series between quarterback Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes is also close as they divided their four meetings against each other. Mahomes got the last showdowns with the Buccaneer’s quarterback, and he might replicate his previous victory to win the back-to-back Super Bowl crowns.

The two teams met in 1976, and the Buccaneers lost every game that season. However, their 28-19 game against Chiefs represented one of the least irregular finishes. Two years later, the Buccaneers got their win against the Chiefs 30-13.

In 1979, Buccaneers defeated the Chiefs again, but the Chiefs regained their victory in 1999 and got their winning streak until 2016. The Chiefs have appeared in the Super Bowl three times, with their first appearance being in 1966, then again in 1969, and 2019. Their fourth appearance will be in the 2021 Super Bowl.

The Chiefs have won the Super Bowl championship twice while the Buccaneers have appeared once in the Super Bowl in 2002 and won once. Brady is the only NFL player who’s appeared in 10 Super Bowls, while Mahomes has appeared in two Super Bowls.

Kansas City Chiefs has some famous fans
