Patrick Mahomes helped pay $100,000 cost to open Arrowhead Stadium as polling place on Election Day

Arrowhead Stadium opened up as a polling place in Kansas City on Tuesday, thanks largely to Chiefs star Patrick Mahomes.

Mahomes and his foundation split the $100,000 bill needed to open up the stadium to voters — something he didn’t think twice about.

"I thought it was very important, not only just to get as many people out to vote as possible, but also to use a place [such] as Arrowhead where we have a lot of fun, show a lot of love and unity with people are coming together, and use it as a place where we can come together to vote and use our voice," Mahomes told the NFL Network’s Jim Trotter on Tuesday.
