Champion Chiefs schedule visit to White House

The Kansas City Chiefs are set for their first-ever White House visit as Super Bowl champions, with the team setting a June 5 date for its meeting with President Joe Biden.

The Chiefs beat the Philadelphia Eagles 38-35 on Feb. 12 in Glendale, Ariz., for their third Super Bowl title.

However, the team didn't go to Washington following its title in 2019-20 season due to the pandemic. And back when the Chiefs won Super Bowl IV in January 1970, sports champions meeting the president wasn't a regular occurrence.

The first NFL championship team to visit the White House was the 1979-80 Pittsburgh Steelers, according to multiple media reports.
