Kansas City Chiefs: Andy Reid Reveals Why He Ate 60 Cheeseburgers in Ad Shoot With Patrick Mahomes
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid is not only one of the top shot-callers in the game today. Apparently, the 66-year-old can also probably be proclaimed as the cheeseburger king in the NFL.
Very few people, if any, could contend with Reid’s cheeseburger-munching prowess after the three-time Super Bowl-winning coach revealed that he recently consumed no less than 60 burgers in a recent commercial shot with star quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

In a recent interview with Complex Sports, Reid relived a recent experience wherein he consumed no less than 60 cheeseburgers in the span of a few hours. Apparently, Reid came into the commercial shoot with a promise in honor of his undying love for burgers:
“We did a hamburger shoot,” Reid said. “I made a pact to myself, just being a cheeseburger connoisseur, that I wouldn’t use the spit bucket. But after about the 60th cheeseburger, I had to go there.”
It also did not sound like Reid was exaggerating.

According to Reid, though, that wasn’t even the funny part. The veteran coach then went on to share how the producer asked him to deliver his lines with his mouth full. After several failed attempts, it was Mahomes himself who just had to demand that they abandon the bit
“Pat’s sitting right in front of me, so I’m trying to do this and there’s cheeseburger flying everywhere at these guys,” he said. “They couldn’t hold a straight face. I mean, they were dying laughing.”
